FB execs aren't stupid. This is not about the metaverse, it is about deflecting from bad press and ill will into mockery about this aloof nonsense.

A few weeks or months ago you probably noticed your sentiment towards facebook turn pretty negative. Just thinking about the company as dorky instead helps their bottom line.

We all know this project isn't going anywhere, including maybe everyone but zuck.

The more noise about this lame ass project instead of how fb is ruining society, the better for them.
