You’re blaming Facebook for your lack of self discipline and control?

How would you suggest this post be strongly interpreted? Any interpretation I can come up with conflates their own self discipline with Facebooks doing.
I suppose one might be that whatever tricks they're talking about are exploits that have more to do with hard-wiring in humans than self-discipline.

Either way, though, please don't post personal attacks. If you don't think it violates that guideline, it certainly violates "Be kind." https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
