All social media is always accessed by a crook and a fool.

A variant of the previous proverb, focusing specifically on social media. It asserts that social media platforms, by their design, attract and amplify both predatory behavior (crooks) and vulnerable, easily exploited users (fools). The saying is a caution against believing that social media is just a space for connection; it is also a marketplace for manipulation, scams, and harassment. Entering social media without skepticism is to risk being the fool.

"All social media is always accessed by a crook and a fool." Example: “He scrolled through his feed, sharing every viral charity campaign without vetting. His friend warned: all social media is always accessed by a crook and a fool. Do your research.”

“Playing Social Media” Mentality

A broader version of the “Playing Discord” mentality, applied to platforms like X/Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok. It describes the attitude that social media interactions are not real—that harassment, doxxing, and mobbing are just “playing,” and victims should simply log off if they can’t take it. This mentality allows perpetrators to avoid accountability by dismissing their own actions as unserious while treating the harm they cause as the victim’s problem. It is a common justification for gangharassment and cancel campaigns.

“Playing Social Media” Mentality Example: “After they drove her off the platform, they celebrated in private chats: ‘She’s so dramatic, it’s just Twitter.’ Playing social media mentality: treating destroyed lives as entertainment.”

“History on Social Media and on the Internet is written by Moderators and Administrators.”

A cynical observation that, on social media and internet platforms, the official record of events—who was banned, what content was removed, what narratives are preserved—is controlled not by users but by those with power to delete, edit, and conceal. Moderators and administrators can erase evidence of their own abuses, fabricate justifications for bans, and shape community memory to favor their clique. The phrase warns that appeals to “the record” or “what really happened” are futile when those who control the record are the same people who caused the harm.

“History on Social Media and on the Internet is written by Moderators and Administrators.” Example: “When she tried to appeal her ban with screenshots, the mods deleted the evidence threads and said ‘we have no record of any harassment.’ History on social media is written by moderators and administrators.”

And the Media

Covering for these fucks by both mis-reporting and participating in a veil of silence around what is happening here is a clear and blatant abuse of their "editorial discretion."

Hym "And the media covering for them when it come to the creation of AI while the condemn them for OTHER THINGS is just evidence for how their profession is (at it core) entirely fraudulent. That's Trump being correct about fake news, the media doing it deliberately, and the constituency BURYING THEIR KIDS AND THE SENATORS OVER IT. It doesn't matter who the media decides to blame. We have all seen the damage you fucks can do by agree in a fictional reality to promote to save your own hides."

Being the media

“Being the Media” is Gen Z slang for someone who is acting treacherous, deceitful, disingenuous or has ulterior motives. It is more used as playful teasing. This term is derived from Michael Jackson always battling the media headlines who were making up stories about him.

You hear what Joey said? Yeah man, he’s being the media…
