  • I've tried so many times to maintain an interest in Facebook but it always ends up with me being so tired of that stupid site that I close down my account. x) The last time I deleted it entirely. If everybody else wants to have a Facebook-account, I don't judge them, why would I? I just don't want one myself.

  • yo is this you ... i dig any human with a good rant ... shout me back

    emma yeats philly facebook ... dig deep

  • sorry for spelling wrong

  • go figure everybody here is wasting there time on the internet(unless doing reserch or such other activity) anyway this is about talking to peaole in person and here they are not talking at alll. I love this vidioe and the first one. But I gotta give Ross the props. { >

  • i respect you but i prefer to talk face to face with people and also i dont wanna be obssesed with facebook thats just stupid, thats why i dont have a facebook account but thats just my opinion

  • This video is good BUT, there is a difference on how Facebook should be(Daniel Kennedy) and how he is(Ross Gardiner). GET IT?

  • @Penumbrosos actually.....no.everything is just matter of point of view.and I think that Daniel hit the golden spot. no one is forcing you to use facebook like Ross said man. it's your choice and yours only.

  • @angguaa It seems to me that both have similar opinions -that facebook is used in wrong way by "most of people"- Ross advice people to leave and Daniel to use in a different way. But in general Facebook still a not very useful tool and worse, a tool with own will if you now what I mean. People are very weak when it comes to manipulation-method used by many companies including Facebook to induce behavior or "FORCING"! -, so in my opinion 'leave Facebook' seems to be a more wise advice. Maybe not.

  • I'd still give most credits to Ross since his video is the original one and he's the one behind the whole rhetorical-banner-thing. Imagine how overlooked his video would have been if he merely talked to a webcam.

    I'll give this video credits for having the most rational arguments though and no credits to Emily since she's simply just trying to bitch back at Ross. No creativity whatsoever.

  • you and hitler....hitler brain washed people and you opened up people eyes...is that good? lol

  • I generally do not comment on videos. I watched both videos after being linked to them on FB - Go figure.

    For me, Facebook is not a method to communicate. Most of my friends live far too far away to plan to go to the movies by posting on my wall anyway. But it is a place to share and exchange ideas. One thing Facebook enabled me to do was connect with cousins I never met and get to know who they are when I physically cannot do so.

    That is a gift worth more than the time I lose on FB.

  • waste of paper

  • whom.

  • very good response, you were respectful and made your case like a good debater should, unlike most other responses you weren't pretentious in anyway. You made some good points. but I'd like to say something to people about the reconnection part and them saying internet isn't communication or doesn't count. Go take a cybernetics or psychology class and learn the definition of communication,and I wanna see you physically communicate with someone in Colorado while you're in Maryland good luck

  • 1:27, Is Ross dead?

  • @radiocontrol101 No, it says Michael Hutchins is dead.

  • ingenuous video facebook is about making new friends, i never seen someone making new friends by facebook... and add old friends doesnt mean meet them again, cause personal meet is what counts, talk by internet is nothing!

  • Dude you're like pro-tardbook Hitler with worse facial hair and a horrible taste in filming location/music. Oh, and your ass totally looks fat in those shorts.

  • and where's that beach at??

  • both point of view are very good and most of them all true I guess its depending on the person! :)

  • The PEOPLE on FACEBOOK are not the problem with it. It is Zuckerburg and his "idea" of what things should be like. Amazing how the privacy issue of FB keeps coming up again and again. If it is for you, good, just not for me or his ideals.

    Neat Vid btw,

  • The biggest problem of Facebook is, it collects your data to earn money! And this is the point why everyone should think very hard about to participate on Facebook.

  • @Dareonsky Agree. The purpose of the facebook incorporation is more to generate money than to connect people. You don't need to present at the stock market to let people communicate.

  • this is brilliant, and very true. I was going to quit Facebook, but then I remembered that there are many people I would lose touch with who I actually care about, and that would be sad.

  • -.-

  • daniel u r gay

  • Comment removed

  • Facebook is not REAL communication - it's a scapegoat for people who don't want to put in the effort of calling and catching up on someone- they would rather scan their facebook and be done with it. It's making people more lazy. I don't have a personal account and I don't need one.

  • my (a word) is still on?

  • Comment removed

  • Facebook to the user is what the user makes of it. To some, it's a place to check up on friends. To the loners, it's a life disposal for trying to get as many "friends" as possible. The temptation to do that is great on facebook because it is so easy; the users would only have to go in a chat room like YoVille, get people to talk to themselves, exchange facebook emails and whala: friend requests sent and accepted (repeated 1000 more times).

    It's like saying guns are bad; the USE is only bad.

  • FUCK YOU!! YOUR ARE A CIA UNDERCOVER AGENT!! YOU FUCKIN NAZI!!!

  • Cool but I prefer Ross aesthetics lol. Who needs Facebook in a paradisiac tropical beach...? It's in the middle of the busy and impersonal city that one needs to "connect" in the ways provided by facebook. I wouldn't have a fb account at all in that environment, I'd lie on the beach all day long lol - but well, I don't have it anyway lol. Yet I agree fb makes people easier to spot, at least those who are lame enough to be "themselves"... fb allows A LOT to pretend to be another person.Greetings!

  • thumbs up if u got to 20 seconds and then exited

  • All these response videos have nothing to do with view points but, everything to do about VIEWS.. Ross had an original video and everybody saw how widely VIEWed it was and then decided to jump on his coat tails hoping to get VIEWS. People need recognition like the plaque these days.

  • make a new account, add only the people you actually like, tweak privacy settings and show activity only to your friends and enjoy facebook minus the retards.

  • So...if you dont' like ross's video, don't follow what him says.. Everyone has their own opinion... U think you're so good insult people?!..

  • im so fucking glad you made this video

  • hahah the words for the disclaimer are soooo small!! I like this video than Ross video way better already!! hahah he made his own acronyms! hahaha....soo funny!!... This video is sooo amazingly awesome..

  • So many Ross fan boys and fan girls. Facebook has pros and cons people.

  • facebook rules #1

  • oh no you dident go there..............ross gonna bust a cap in yo ass

  • Damn there's so many mean comments on here! I found both videos entertaining, a funny topic of conversation. Just relax and enjoy! If not, move on and watch a different video. No need to get all psycho and wish death upon the video makers... Just sayin.

  • i hate this person he did this vid as a joke hes trying to get attention and trying to get money he set up ads in the video and out so he can make some money plus your wasting paper doing this shit YOU SIR need to get off life

  • @LifeLikeJohn97 He is not wasting paper. He is USING the paper to prove his point. And I think he proved his point well because I agree with what he has to say.

  • My god people are so judgmental. I loved both Ross' and this video. Many very true points in each video.

  • facebook in connection with my smart phone is the first reason on my "thats why Im alive list" so be happy that you are born in a decade in which its possible to stay connected with guys all over the world in a way who is that easy. and dont fuck arround! nevermind what kinda video you ll do... no one outta there will cancle his fb acc just because of watchin a video like ross did.

  • This guy is totally right. Think about it like this:

    Facebook is only as addicting and life controlling as YOU let it be. It's easy to blame the site, but you may as well just admit that YOU ARE WEAK.

    Go on it to hook up with friends, and sort things out. Catch up with friends who live far away.

    Blaming the site is lazy and feckless.

  • Wow...way to save the trees bro...

    T_-"

  • I know you can't stop jerking off when u are on facebook!

  • dont' you feel ashamed? well if you don't, you should.

  • You both make good points,but you misinterpret what Ross was saying.He was only targeting a specific group of people.The people who use facebook like a crackwhore uses crack.(like you mentioned in your own video) He was basically telling them to get off facebook,not everyone.Seriously,no one has 800 real friends that they talk and meet up with.I can see a more realistic number of people being friended being between 1-80,maybe more but not 300+ (includes family and coworkers,not just friends)

  • no one cares about you video but we care about you, GET OFF FACEBOOK NOW

  • @dirtblossom NO!!!!!

  • Your video really sucks!!!

    And i'm sure that you can't even undestand what Ross meant in his video.

    But don't worry, i won't explain what he meant. It's impossible for low IQ "people".

  • @VouleutikiAsulia You suck for trying to bring people down!! I'm sure he knows what Ross meant in his video. If he had a low IQ then it would be impossible for him to make such an awesome video to show many awesome points about Facebook.

  • Yes you do. It's horrible.

  • STOP SOPA AND PIPA!

  • What happens when you accept a friend request from the devil herself? Check out the song Human Relations by Irish band, Senakah, to find out!

  • Nice video man, thank you :)

  • I agree.

  • This one is as good as Ross's.

  • This video is so full of FAIL it boggles the mind. Ross FTW!

  • entrei so pra negaticar q cara troxa, otro q n entendeu a mensagem, e quer 6 minutos de fama.

    cú de arroz.

    : /

  • such a waste of paper oh and i go on Facebook for only games tee hee ;D

  • @Alanze123 Not a waste of paper and I as well go to Facebook to play games!

  • The owner of facebook calls his trusting users "dumb fucks"

    Go look it up

  • In the beginning of this video one of his posts said it was not facebook alone that encourages the negative activity behind the person who uses it, but if you fast forward to 3:48 seconds you will notice that he said it does encourage the negative activity of people who chooses to use facebook. The only difference between facebook and reality is that you can pretty much get away doing the stupid ignorant choices that you make where as in reality you could get in serious trouble. OPEN YOUR EYES!!

  • Such a waste of paper...

  • There are that many dislikes because intolerant/judgemental/bee-in-­their-bonnet people like to pass judgement, avoiding all nuances of situation and acting as if the world was all black or white options.

  • I totally agree with this! Unfortunately people tend to use it the wrong way...

    Thank you for showing this !

  • see to be honest! i love Facebook, if it wasnt for facebook i wouldnt have met some family members i havent seen in years.. or friends from primary school and high school! its interesting to talk to people and see people u havent in a long time! im from belfast, northern ireland and when i was 11 i stayed in Minneapolis Minnesota with a family for 7 weeks and i lost contact with them when i got home for years and i searched them one day on facebook and found all of them :D it was soooo good!!!

  • so yeah....we should cut down more trees for these fucks...and the music...fucking GAY.

  • Why so many dislikes? Everything was true.

  • so true.

  • True maan soo true..loved ur vid

  • Real good video man!!

  • lame!! no 1080p to read your disclaimer.

  • The problem is that Facebook promotes all of the things that Ross puts forth in his video, and promotes none of the things you bring to light here. I'll agree with you that generally the user is the problem, and not the tool, but when you're dealing with a product that's specifically engineered and designed to absorb as much of your time as possible, turn you into a self obsessed egotist and get you worked up over your lot in life, it gets a little bit trickier than 'just connecting folks.'

  • @jwtemp1983 I've never seen a facebook promotion, I don't think its ever been necessary

  • what am i doing on 'fb' anyways ooh right i have no life

  • SHUT UP, DANIEL.

  • That was good mernnn

  • GET A HOBBIE

  • GET A GRIP

  • REPENT!! THE COMING KINGDOM OF THE LORD IS COMING.

  • oh god get your paper sorted out

  • HaHa, MAISO (my ass is still on)

  • Good music & pretty funny video, i still disagree. I got off facebook 13 days ago (the matrix no longer has me), feels great not reading narcissist comments. In reality facebooks only good for 3 things that are in no way special to its site

    1) promotion (bands/shops etc)

    2) long distance relationship (family members)

    3) following people who inspire you (musicians/painters whatever)

    Now i sleep, read or exercise if bored rather than read about everybody elses ''perfect life'' & lament at mine.

  • total waste of paper -.-

  • Ross' videos is much better than this ****

  • what a waste of paper

  • Comment removed

  • I think this one is better,but I dont like both of them(this and Ross's)beacause they waest too much paper!!!

  • Saw Ross's video - Im quitting Facebook, i dont need those people!

    Saw Daniels video - He has a point im staying on Facebook :')

  • This guy is ridiculous...

  • I can't believe you wasted that much paper.... I think facebook is an invasion of peoples privacy, and yet people are stupid enough to still use it to advertise thier entire lifes on it. Haaahaha!

  • This guy is just a junkie trying to justify his habit.. lol

    And you never showed us your but lying just like hitler.

    And is Ross like your "friend"?

    And do you know how scary that is? here come to my house i have a warm bowl of soup for you.

  • i really like his ideas.....and for those who disliked this...did you even have the time to watch this entirely or you just read the title?

  • 4:05 WOW... tht is exactly me.... SHIT... i have an addiction to fb...

  • South Koreaaaaa

  • My Ass Is So O...?

  • your video is a clever answer to ross!! but i believe that real life is better than virtual.. life is great, is a gift for us! go out with friends, talk with your parents, see the sky, the sun........ the miracle is infront of our eyes. i have never had a profile on fb but i do not judge the people that have. my only objection is the abuse. have fun! leave LIFE!! :))))))))))))))))))))))

  • Great! Thanks

  • Who the fuck is Ross

  • let me guess the first thing you do when you get home is put on ur pc and login to facebook. there are people (men as well as women) prostituting to be on facebook lol, guess you're one of them, take of the blindfold bro

  • You give a whole new name to Douche! and of course Knock off!

  • Facebook doesn't really serve to 'make new friends' as the video implies as most of the people you ad to your friends list you will likely never meet in person or talk to outside of the first few days when the generic conversation is over and you realize you have nothing else to talk about. I agree, it gives people a voice alright... to make themselves out to be something they are not. Facebook is a virtual world where nobodies can fool people in to thinking they are somebodies..

  • I don't think that Ross is claiming to think that people don't like being tagged in photos. I think what he was trying to say is that when people get tagged in photos and no one likes them, they get sad.

  • I love the contrasting settings of each particular points of views. Its quite interesting how both of these videos persuade u to agree with either other. Funny, both these video work alot like advertising... cool shit though...

  • Comment removed

  • @1karatemonkey thats weird

  • You're clearly not Hitler.

    Now, Stalin on the other hand...

  • waste of 6:29, im never going to get back :(

  • Spot on. I thought Ross' video assumed that people can't separate Facebook from real life. Thankfully I'm not that moronic. As Daniel says, the problem is the user, not the tool.

  • When did you dislike this vid? I finally hit the button at 3:41, in hindsight I'm amazed I made it so far. Also, Ross had much better music.

  • Thats such a waste of paper. What did you do with it?

  • This guy's on a beach, that's cool.

  • Nah, you really do.

    More friends with weak relationships is not better than less friends with stronger relationships.

    

  • You completely missed the point of the video. Crack probably has a few of its own success stories.

  • WHAT IS FACEBOOK BTW??

  • Stuff Facebook, think of all the paper being used in these video's!

  • FAIL!

  • I actually agree with the points you make, and your personality comes across really well, truth be told I wish I had more friends that came across that way lol (<--yes, i did actually chuckle a little)

  • the trees that behind u "unlike" =[

  • nice tshirt

    

  • So many negative responses, just wanted to let you know: you definitly made a good point.

  • Ahah so you say that Facebook is helping people developing their communication skills?!?! Social Networks are doing the exact opposite of that... People now prefer to hide behind an account instead of getting out there and actually meet someone. Instead of people meeting other people face to face and /actually) getting to know each other, in matters such as common interests or whatsoever, they prefer to place a like in a picture of someone that they never meet and will hardly meet...

  • Comment removed

  • why don't you fuck the girl from the other response video?

  • your just going to leave your mess there?

  • ROSS > This guy

  • @Adrianthemasterg Ross is better, because he looks cooler ha?

  • Where do you think your going? Litterer, you can't just leave it there! YOU JUNKY!

    YOU ADOPTED

  • sooo... basically this should be entitled, stop masturbating... NO (all caps rage)

  • Ross has a better point.

  • i love this but also ross's one as well

  • Rubbish

    

  • I agree dude, nice vid too. Why many dislikes? =/

  • I just wasted 6:29 of my time while I could drink a beer with my friend or go to fitness... FB makes people lazy. It's like a drug. People died because of this addiction, they wrote on their wall that they will took their own lives and nobody on FB cared...they even "Liked it"... Well not in real world. FB people suffer of depression, lack of real communication, in real life hardly makes a real friends etc...I've seen this on young people..

    Now think about your self in which profile you belong.

  • @NinjaTTT yeah thats true,people died. but not because of their addiction.If they were depressed and lonesome and no one in real life could help them they're going to die anyway. the problem is the user , not the tool as my friend says.

  • Moehahaha, you're the best.

  • You suck at doing this

  • Comment removed

  • FB is neutral as every thing...

    who you are is how you see it :)

  • Ross' video makes much more sense, he was reflecting on modern times.

  • you must b a facebook addict if you r responding to ross video get a life great work ross.wats up wiv u ru sad that ross thought of his video first

  • you must have a lot of time on your hands my friend Hutchence' is a smack head

  • I love how everyone bitches about the ads on facebook and I'm just sitting here like: "lol adblock"

  • @Cameron1469 mwhahaha, agreed we sit far superior with our adblocked browser (cackles)

  • Peachbacon. Just sayin'

  • You misspelled Michael Hutchence's name four times!

  • @ULTRAFAGXXX What are you, six?

  • He totally looks exactly like Christian Bale.

  • this is lame, and I don't know why you guys have such a problem with acronyms. LOLZ I love them

  • great video Daniel Kenedy you showed and said even if in writen words what I always say to those who are always blaming facebook or any other social network for their problems

  • if he just left a thoughs papers on the ground im going to flip

    hahhaha jk im not that crazy

  • I like this one better...

  • facebook is a self esteem crusher. never use it.

  • @themightytacohead only if you're an envious person, or very insecure about yourself.

  • @themightytacohead totally right dude

  • LOL!

  • All depends how and how much you use facebook.
