Facebook the social networking site requests its users to add friends or have a circle friends. Yet as it is the nature of those who absolute hypocrites - the purpose is not enable people to come together, it is deny them access to any social contact. Say one thing, do exactly the opposite. Facebook should enable adding people not denying it. It has happened so often that it has become irritating, what is the point of Facebook, make enemies and manipulate them or make friends?
For all intents and purposes Facebook hopeless in the task of Social Networking. Instead of encouraging people to meet people it is doing exactly the opposite. Perhaps there is language barrier and huge cultural difference. If choose add people, that is precisely what I like to do. In Facebook and chat sites that I have seen, the purpose is not exchange ideas and points of view, it is dead silence and indifference. This is a sign of a disastrous social attitude. Meeting people for the sake of meeting them is something can only understood if the cultural barriers were not so wide. Friendship is for its own sake - not to gain or benefit anything. I suppose this is never understood. The madness that lingers in Western societies is 'Do Not Touch', 'Do Not Contact', 'Everyone Is Invisible' -'You Are Alone In This World' - this can be seen in Europe and USA. People keep minimum contact with each other, because it could be misconstrued to mean something else. Whereas in the East, in Asia physical contact is a part of the way people interact. It terrifies the people in the West. Essentially Facebook has been made for those in the West not for those who live in Asian or African countries, where physical, non-sexual, contact is essential part of communication. When will people learn. I want to make friends for the sake of making friends, nothing else.
