"Look, I don't have a Facebook page because I have little interest in hearing myself talk about myself any further than I already do in interviews or putting any more about myself online than there already is. But if I wasn't in this position, I'm sure I would use it every day"
About this Quote
The second sentence is where the quote gets culturally honest. “If I wasn’t in this position, I’m sure I would use it every day” punctures any whiff of superiority. He admits the platform’s gravity and his own susceptibility to it. The intent reads like a preemptive defense against the familiar celebrity move of treating social media as beneath them while still benefiting from its attention economy. Eisenberg doesn’t pretend he’s immune; he’s just overloaded.
Context matters, too: Eisenberg is indelibly linked to Facebook through The Social Network, where he played Mark Zuckerberg as a twitchy avatar of ambition and alienation. Even when he’s not promoting that film, the association follows him. So his “little interest” doubles as a quiet rejection of being drafted into that mythos in real life. It’s a small, human claim to privacy in an era that mistakes constant self-narration for authenticity.
