Title: Is not joining Facebook a sign you're a psychopath? Some employers and psychologists say staying away from social media is 'suspicious'

Facebook has become such a pervasive force in modern society that increasing numbers of employers, and even some psychologists, believe people who aren't on social networking sites are 'suspicious.'

The German magazine Der Taggspiegel went so far as to point out that accused theater shooter James Holmes and Norwegian mass murder Anders Behring Breivik have common ground in their lack of Facebook profiles.

On a more tangible level, Forbes.com reports that human resources departments across the country are becoming more wary of young job candidates who don't use the site.

Facebook

Normal: Facebook has become so pervasive in this culture that not having a profile is considered 'abnormal'

The common concern among bosses is that a lack of Facebook could mean the applicant's account could be so full of red flags that it had to be deleted.

Slate.com Advice Columnist, Emily Yoffee, wrote in an advice column that young people shouldn't date anyone who isn't on Facebook.

'If you’re of a certain age and you meet someone who you are about to go to bed with, and that person doesn’t have a Facebook page, you may be getting a false name. It could be some kind of red flag,' he says.

Yoffee points out that these judgements don't apply to older people who were already productive adults before social media became widespread.

The tech news site Slashdot summed up Der Taggspiegel's story about social networking as 'not having a Facebook account could be the first sign that you are a mass murderer.'

James Holmes

Loner: James Holmes, the accused Colorado theater shooter, does not appear to have friends and did not have a Facebook page

It points out that Holmes, who is accused of killing 12 people and an unborn child and wounding 58 others at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, and Breivik, who murdered  77 people with a car bomb and mass shooting, did not use Facebook and had small online footprints.

Breivik used MySpace and Holmes was reportedly on the hookup site Adult Friend Finder.

Psychologist Christopher Moeller told the magazine that using Facebook has become a sign of having a healthy social network.

Psychologists have noted that Holmes, along with several noted mass murderers, have lacked any real friends.

And this is what the argument boils down to: It's the suspicion that not being on Facebook, which has become so normal among young adults, is a sign that you're abnormal and dysfunctional, or even dangerous, ways.

Most people on facebook have no friends either, even if facebook says they have thousands.

It's gotten to the point with the authorities where we will all become suspects for obeying the laws because, afterall, if you're being too careful, you must have something to hide.

Agreed.

It also goes along with the "anonymity should be illegal" movement.

We're probably all felons. Who can tell what laws are on the books that we "violate"? Is sedition still on the books?

Or Psychosis.

I refuse to sign up with Fazebuch because I choose not to surrender my information and such to their "good graces" - and once you join they're harder to get rid of than an insurance salesman.

A sign of the times, or possibly planted to get more people to surrender to the groupthink.

That's what I hear. Just being on the internet is enough exposure.

Yes it is. Title 18 U.S.C. Secs 2383, 2384 and 2385.

Well, there you go.

I'd say most of us, here and elsewhere, meet that definition. Makes me wonder why they haven't use that. Could it be because they know the reaction they'd provoke?

Of course they do. They are the master instigators of riots and provocative speech.

This is true, in certain instances, especially when they want to start a war or discredit a movement that they can't co-opt (like the tea party takeover). It's OK when they do it. It works for them.

But if they start persecuting people for "sedition", that would be a direct declaration of war against us. The reaction would be violent. This is why they don't use it. They're afraid of us. That's why they seem to prefer indirect methods, imo.

Oh surely they are. They are afraid of what they refer to us as "belligerents". What they fear is transparency of ( notice I did not say in government) government and belligerents using the sedition laws against corrupt gov't officials. But yes, those sedition laws are still in the books today.

psychologists say

Facebook

not having a profile is considered 'abnormal'

And those same quack psychologists and their entire team of quacks, psychiatrists, the-rapists, and social workers can "label" anyone who spends an abnormal amount of time on Facebook with OCD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and screeners for the medical establishment can direct those persons to involuntary psychiatric detention (prison) and drug 'em to oblivion and rack up hundreds of thousands of dollars of fraudulant medical expenses to "cure" them.

Everything the quacks advise the population to do is a "Catch 22."
