For me it's some kind of cartoon with the caption "Best comic funny 🤣" and sometimes "funny short film" (even though it's a picture)

Like, Meta has to know this is happening. Do they really think this is what will keep their userbase? And nobody would think it's just a little weird?

Well, maybe it is the taste of people still being there.. I mean, you have to be at least a little bit strange, if you are still on facebook…
