You know your luck has run out if your name is Jim Carrey.
Jim Carrey is making headlines, and surprisingly, not for any movie roles. The actor was recently on trial for his ex-girlfriend’s death after her mother accused him of supplying her with drugs that eventually led to her suicide. Oh yeah, and he’s been having a lot of trippy interviews where he’s discussing some real existential things.
Carrey’s latest weird adventure was when he announced that he would be deleting his Facebook account. His reasons are that the current president’s election was heavily influenced by the social media site and that Russian spies were exploiting it. So he’s saying goodbye and wants his fans to follow suit.
His entire message is as follows:
I’m dumping my @facebook stock and deleting my page because @facebook profited from Russian interference in our elections and they’re still not doing enough to stop it. I encourage all other investors who care about our future to do the same. #unfriendfacebook pic.twitter.com/KHWgZzhhmp

Now, it’s up to you whether or not you want to delete your Facebook account and go rogue from all forms of social media, but it’s unlikely that the actor’s stand will tear the site down or stop Russians from interfering pretty much wherever the hell they want.
