I saw this and I think you should know that he reason he gave doesn't actually mean that facebook 'practices' fraud, he points out that the Like Companies like all pages, not just the ones they're paid to. So the title of the thread is technically false, but yeah facebook is bullshit.
He did another good video on a related subject.

It is fraud because they are knowingly complicit in the scam by:
a) not admitting it, and
b) not doing anything about it, despite benefiting from it.

They can't say "Oh it's not us, keep paying, it's okay..." when it's a blatant flaw in the product they offer...

What do you mean? i'm glad I'm not registered on it, but the lack of contact with some mates may force me to register for a little while just to get their emails...

I don't really understand the issue here, ok this is a dodgy business practice but how does it affect you?

Jokes aside please explain how this negatively affects your life? And how if they stopped doing this your life would improve.

I try to limit the amount of thought i put into things i cannot change and don't directly affect me yes. Especially that of a business that is not causing any direct suffering to people.

It is by definition an argument surely? Are you saying social consciousness leads to self awareness or is better than it?

That is an understatement.

In fact he really enjoys things that destroy the world, as they act as an externalization of his own feelings about himself and the world he lives in. It is thanatos manifest on a global scale.

@nowaysj I wouldn't say i enjoy them just that i try to accept them.

@benny Yeah but it gives them a platform to advertise their business for free in the first place so you can't really complain about that.
