I agree with the parent poster, and yes, I consider all the time whether I'm mistaken. I can't even shut off the part of my brain that double-checks and questions my thoughts and views, on Facebook or anything else.
Do you want to try to make a case for Facebook being good or even benign, or did you just want to check in if we're conducting regular introspection?
(And, off the top of my head, the things Facebook does that nudge it into "evil": persuading media to move to video by lying about viewership statistics, gaming the algorithms to maximize engagement in the style of a Skinner box, in at least one case intentionally trying to depress people through feed manipulation, turning a blind eye to electoral interference, all the dark patterns surrounding getting people's personal information, the shady ways they share that information, and if I sat here and literally thought about it instead of producing a list as I typed it out, I'd come up with more. This is not what a good or benign corporation does. Doing these things is not compatible with being good or benign.)
