What do you think it is, actually? Of course, it’s only such a move to allow the nazi (MAGAs ARE nazis!) propaganda to be freely shared. What else it could be, seriously?

As the late Twitter before it, Facebook just became a nazi bar. That’s all.

What basis do you have for assuming good-faith from Facebook?

I usually trust the EFF but this statement concerns me.

I have mixed feelings about this.

I understand that the EFF strives to support free speech online, which this technically supports, but the EFF should also understand better than anyone that platforms beholden to advertisers choosing to allow harmful content only results in the decline of that platform's revenue from losing advertisers, which almost always directly causes enshittification of the platform. (See: Twitter, or "X" I guess.)

no.

NO.

There you go less censorship

Meta is a rotten corporation, not a freedom fighting NGO. Everything they do is compromised and what you're signaling by your statement is trust in them? Are you for real?

Facebook Deletes Internal Employee Criticism of New Board Member Dana White

"Insulting, criticizing, or antagonizing our colleagues or Board members is not aligned with the CEE."

^{Jason Koebler (404 Media)}

other people have been more eloquent here, so I wont try to duplicate their reasoning. I'll just go straight to what I am feeling, in my gut. So, to whomever wrote this post:

Take a long walk off a short pier.

1) This is just an embarrassingly bad take and whoever wrote it should feel embarrassed, and

2) Meta has never had an "over censorship" problem. I have reported blatant racism, transphobia that was well into the territory of incitement to violence, recruitment fraud, ads for illegal drugs, smuggled cigarettes, and academic cheating services, medical advice that would kill people if they followed it, etc. etc. NOTHING has EVER been taken down. Only thing they ever take down is boobs.

This is a bad look. You’re familiar with Lucy, Charlie Brown and the football?

What in Facebook’s history would lead you to think there’s good faith to be had.

I love y'all. I’ve donated for ages both formally and throwing cash to your booths at various cons. I'm a fan and proud member.

But WTF. No. I can't think of a plausible way to describe Meta as "over-moderated”, nor can I think of a realistic scenario where they’ll actually do this in good faith.

If they want to earn a good reputation, they can begin by starting to act civilly for the first time ever. If that happens, and they keep it up for a few years, *maybe* then I’ll believe it.
