If you’re on Facebook you are the problem. Stop pretending it’s someone else problem. Take responsibility.

The employee is correct of course, but how did they only just realize this Anyway welcome to antifa!

In a post to Meta’s @Pride group, Alex Schultz, Meta’s CMO, said policies should not get in the way of allowing societal debate and pointed to Roe v. Wade, the landmark abortion case, as an example of “courts getting ahead of society” in the 1970s. -NYT Dead women got ahead of a debate?

They naxi

Is there a way to easily retrieve all the photos one has posted on FB? That, and the Memories feature make it hard to quit, for me at least.

The Fediverse has free community-funded and community-developed replacements for these sites. The main thing they're missing is users, something that BSky has proven solvable. Friendica is their Facebook, Lemmy is an *excellent* Reddit clone, and there's Pixelfed as a copy of Instagram.

It's the opposite for me. I'm part of a really useful group of alumni from my college, so it's hard to give that up. OTOH, I only ever used insta to keep tabs on what my adult children are doing. So I deleted the app and asked them to send more photos to my Frameo.

Saw the writing on the wall with this & X. Kept repeating myself, made my health bad repeating it. Don’t trust a guy who started by making a website for women ratings. Kept saying where is our art going posting on Insta after he acquired it forcefully. No one listened. Shrugs.

The law includes the right to free speech ladies! META just announced on the news they’re relaxing the censorship rules for users. My job is done! I protested the new rules against gays. 🏳️‍🌈🥹 Still need a husband!!!

no shit

yes...you are on wrong side of history.

Wonder how many Meta employees are OK with Christian Fascist hatred and racism that far right extremist Mark Zuckerberg is selling by his #FascistSignalling

You've been on the wrong side of history for quite some time, my dude.

If they haven’t quit already, it’s just talk. This is who they’ve been since zuck stole the site that rated girls.

History takes notes

No sh^t!

Congrats Meta employee, you’ve become the This is Fine Dog.

FUCK ZUCK

Greed has no limit So since then was fact czeching (sic) bad for freedom …

You couldn't pay me enough to work for Meta anytime in their history.

This is exactly their stance

Right! That’s the most ridiculous part - they are singling out one vulnerable minority group to be hateful toward. Is this a hundred years ago?

Yes, because this is what they believe. Or rather, these are the beliefs of the powers they are trying to align with. I don’t actually think Zuckerberg himself has a shred of actual moral opinion about anything one way or the other.

History is written in bold moves, not whispers.

If you haven't already closed all your Meta accounts, please do it. Supporting a platform with this type of messaging is just not a good idea.

This implies they have multiple other times they felt their employer was on the wrong side of history.

"A trans person isn't a he or she, it's an it"

Yikes!

No quibbling. My suggestion was to absorb and reflect, and empathize. That's it.

Just yuck

No offense, but making money by algorithms to keep people artifically engaged was already pretty close to Momos time tieves … adding that those algos make people usually angry and/or miserable also doesn‘t add karma points … it‘s just now even worse

Is this article accurate? This is disgusting.

Always and forever

Explicitly identifying groups that are okay to attack is new In the past platforms just pared back their hate speech rules and implicitly allowed shit like this

That is... something.

Holy shit! Public floggings as a “sympathy tactic”… Here we go setting new records in the soulless olympics

📌

Dehumanizing your enemies is not the way to fight them if you actually believe in human rights. Mark Zuckerberg is a terrible fucking person but he is still a person.

I mean hard to say but since Facebook is already on board with promoting mass slaughter and has never been held to account for that… yeah. Really a question of degree of badness, not kind.

I had thought that the value of a “brand” was directly dependent upon the value of the “products” that it markets to consumers. If Meta products are no longer reliable and therefore valuable to consumers, what value does that brand have?
