Len Lipkin is the sole administrator of the Facebook group “Jewish Philadelphia,” which has about 3,600 members.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After more than 13 years of moderating the \u201cJewish Philadelphia\u201d Facebook group, administrator Len Lipkin is hoping to pass the torch.<\/p>\n

The group \u2014 created by Lipkin on Sept. 22, 2008 \u2014 now boasts 3,600 members from the Greater Philadelphia community.<\/p>\n

And with the group\u2019s rapid growth over the past few years, Lipkin said he doesn\u2019t have the time or energy to moderate the group\u2019s posts and comments, which can reach up to 100 per day. Lipkin put out feelers in the community, asking group members and community organizations to help manage the page, but with limited interest.<\/p>\n

Over Lipkin\u2019s tenure with the largest Jewish Facebook group in Philadelphia, he\u2019s noticed a lot of changes. Once created as a forum for area Jews to find synagogues or discuss Jewish current events and antisemitism, the group now serves as the virtual bulletin board for area Jewish programming, businesses and holiday events.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, around five years ago, Lipkin observed another shift.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the 2016 election came around, there were a lot of people that started getting a little bit more testy with one another,\u201d Lipkin said. \u201cI started moderating, and we started getting spam, groups of people joining just to post ads and things like that.\u201d<\/p>\n

This wasn\u2019t just the case for Lipkin. Other administrators of Jewish Facebook groups locally and nationally noticed a similar trend: increased political posting and advertisements that have caused their experiences on the social media site to sour.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When former Facebook data scientist Frances Haugen testified at the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Subcommittee hearing on Consumer Protection, Product Safety and Data Security on Oct. 5, she outlined Facebook\u2019s alleged use of algorithms to further partisan agendas and expose younger audiences to content that may damage their mental health.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is causing teenagers to be exposed to more anorexia content. It is pulling families apart. And in places like Ethiopia, it\u2019s literally fanning ethnic violence,\u201d Haugen said in her testimony.<\/p>\n

For Facebook group admins, political posts pose a nuisance.<\/p>\n

Charles Schnur, administrator for the 2,600-member \u201cJews in Center City\u201d group, said he\u2019s noticed Facebook becoming a politically divisive space. He tries to keep politics out, approving posts about community events, not political discussions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve done my best to make this as a unifying area for the Jews in the area,\u201d Schnur said.<\/p>\n

However, Schnur said this wasn\u2019t the case in other Jewish Facebook groups of which he is a part.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe live in a world where both Biden and Trump are antisemites,\u201d Schnur said, referring to the range of opinions he\u2019s seen in various groups. \u201cCan\u2019t we just, for a minute, put that all aside and find something we have in common? Whether it\u2019s a Shabbos dinner, a Torah event, some other event \u2014 The labels shouldn\u2019t matter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even \u201cFrum Fandom,\u201d a Facebook group for Orthodox Jews to discuss their favorite science fiction and fantasy media \u2014 and where Schnur is a member \u2014 isn\u2019t a sanctuary from politics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Group admin Chesky Salomon said he sees a request to post something divisive about once a week. Salomon immediately deletes those requests.<\/p>\n

\u201cI forbid it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Salomon believes that politics stray from the group\u2019s purpose, and that \u201cpolitics ruin everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dustin Kidd, a sociology professor at Temple University who studies social media, said Salomon\u2019s disdain for politics in his Facebook group aligns with why others may be frustrated with the social media site.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolitical issues may be very important, but people also want a place of respite from them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In combination with a \u201cbombardment\u201d of sponsored content and advertisements, Facebook can feel less like a place to disconnect with outside issues and more of a political and economic minefield.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Kidd \u2014 and all of his students \u2014 still use Facebook or other social media sites. Despite issues with Facebook, it\u2019s sometimes the only place for people to find out about events and programming.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMany of [my students] really hate these sites and want to get rid of them, but they feel like it\u2019s so much a part of the way that they are connected to others,\u201d Kidd said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For all of its faults, however, Facebook isn\u2019t all bad, Lipkin said. Last month, someone posted on \u201cJewish Philadelphia\u201d asking for ways to help Afghan evacuees, pointing people toward HIAS PA and JEVS.<\/p>\n

During the early days of COVID, Ronit Treatman, administrator of \u201cJews of Northwest Philadelphia\u201d and \u201cSouth Philly Jews,\u201d saw Facebook as a beacon of hope.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was the only window that some people had to be with other people, especially those who live alone,\u201d Treatman said.<\/p>\n

Facebook has also made it easier for admins to moderate page traffic and avoid spam, allowing them to select frequent users to post automatically, circumventing the manual approval process. As someone who checks the \u201cJewish Philadelphia\u201d site multiple times a day, Lipkin can keep his role as the group\u2019s administrator in balance with his full-time information technology job.<\/p>\n

Lipkin only witnesses political spats or spam posts once a month or so, and that isn\u2019t why he hopes to resign from his administrative role. However, he feels as though the group hasn\u2019t achieved the goal he had in mind in 2008.<\/p>\n

From what Lipkin has seen, \u201cJewish Philadelphia\u201d hasn\u2019t helped people make new friends; it\u2019s mostly a place for people to promote their events. Though useful and fulfilling a community need, Lipkin said, it\u2019s fallen short of his goal of forging more profound connections.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not building community as much as I might have hoped that it would,\u201d Lipkin said.<\/p>\n
