Like Racism? Love Faceparty!
From a recent post on the Faceparty admin blog:
“The way we get our pics validated is by sponsoring underpriviledged people in 3rd world countries, so they can go to university - we contribute towards their university fees in exchange for them checking ur pics… please don’t expect too much from the 3rd world. They’ve probably got “beri beri”, several missing limbs, leprosy and won’t have a clue what they are doing a lot of the time, and different people do it every day and it will sometimes take them a while to get the hang of it.”
Somehow I can’t image Mark Zuckerberg posting anything similar on the Facebook blog. Facebook is raking in money faster than it knows what to do with it all, while Faceparty are complaining about being skint. Anyone fancy taking a punt at why?

you cann’t disrespect third country people like that, infact they are also humans. You could be born in a third world country
To be fair, Faceparty’s whole schtick has always been “we’re not doing it for the money, we don’t give a flying fuck. If you don’t like it, there’s the door.” They’ve also always been this politically incorrect - just saying shocking things to generate a few lols and a bit of buzz here and there.
So, to be honest, they can say what they like - they’ve never made any money and never really will
Not a wise idea to talk about the occupants of developing countries like that; especially since these future post grads are prime fodder for Faceparty. Let’s face it, anybody who’s had access to the internet for more than a couple of years now knows to stay away from that car crash of a social network.
