Facebook Chumming:
The practice of luring friends (Facebook Sharks), by throwing "chum" into the water. Chum usually consists of political or religious comments... far too tempting for a Shark to ignore. The water in this case would be status updates and walls.
When someone knows a Facebook shark is around... making a comment like,

"The Church isn't interested in money or power...."

Facebook Munchausen by Proxy

When you consistently post graphic pictures and descriptions of your sick or injured kids on Facebook to get attention that you would otherwise not get.

Facebook

Once the biggest kingdom on the internet, now it’s a wasteland full of 40 year old single mothers; monster energy zero ultra sippers; jokes about phone bad, book good; antivaxxers.

Mufasa: That’s facebook! You must never go there Simba!

Facebook Paradox

The paradox you find yourself in when you want to up-vote a social media item that has a sad or negative subject. . You merely want to bring the post to attention of your social network but you question whether someone will misunderstand why you are clicking "like/+1/thumb-up/up-vote/etc"
I struggle with the Facebook Paradox. do I click LIKE to share this news feed item, "'Clumsy the Clown' tragically falls from balcony to his death at children's birthday party." Why isn't there a DISLIKE button? Or a button for MEH?
