I'm just typing out quick responses cause I don't have time for your bullshit

I urge everone not to use Facebook.Like
Nigeria is a click farm country so no, you're wrong. No big deal though. This site is obviously important.Its not a shitty argument. Its a worthwhile consideration that you are actually a victim of. Not all the likes are the result of it but its apparent that a large portion are.
None of the numbers match your argument, which honestly points to it being a shitty argument. Furthermore, the Flat Earth Society is more likely to be more popular with less educated countries but those which have a great deal of Internet access (Nigeria).
Oh so now you think Lagos is the only place that has like farms? I can only imagine what the rest of those analytics look like. Maybe you could end this by just taking a screenshot. Show all those likes that cone from countries that actually use the internet.Turns out it is 21.Nope.
You're also missing the part where by "most" you meant "10%".
Look, this is just like that time when you said it's impossible to spoof an e-mail. Go do your 20 minutes of research and save us all some time.What is relevant about that? Are you saying Tapatalk spoofed emails?
I'm sorry I didn't count very thoroughly. Its hard to view the full site from a mobile device. Turns out it is 21. That definitely changes everythingThere is what, 6 comments total?No.
There is what, 6 comments total? Come on.Ah so you didn't learn how you can tell from the video.I did. As the cool dude from the pop science channel said, what matters is engagement. That's why I'm comparing engagement. I'm not going to click on 3000 profiles (or 300 profiles, to get a meaningful sample) and check if they like random crap. I don't need to do that, because I don't care about the percentage as a number. I care about proportions.
Also, you may enjoy this: http://www.jonloomer.com/2014/02/11/facebook-fraud-response/I did look at the page and it seems that most of your insights come from Lagos, Nigeria. Boy that sounds genuine.Considering that we get comments from those people, yes, it does.
Ah so you didn't learn how you can tell from the video.Wow. So how do you know that your likes are genuine again?Let's try this once again. Since the ratio of likes to approximate engagement for each page is similar, it stands to reason that the percentage of "genuine" likes on each page is similar.
Because I asked you how you know and you didn't have a response that sounded like you know. You also edited your initial response.Huh? First of all why did you move this? You touted Facebook likes and then I pointed out that they might not be genuine.Because you were turning a side comment into the subject of an ongoing serious discussion. Do not derail S&C threads. If you think others (in this case, arguably myself) have derailed an S&C thread, do not derail S&C threads anyway.Then you said they are and you don't even know how to tell if they are genuine or not even though the video shows you how.How do you know what I do or do not know? As I said, the engagement of each page is largely proportional to the amount of likes, ergo it speaks to reason that we are equally affected (or not affected) by the issue. You are harping about a non-factor, as usual.
