Summary

Mark Zuckerberg ended Metaā€™s factchecking program on Facebook and Instagram, replacing it with user-submitted ā€œCommunity Notes,ā€ similar to Twitter.

The move is part of a broader shift to the political right, aligning with Donald Trumpā€™s incoming administration.

Zuckerberg criticized factcheckers as ā€œpolitically biasedā€ and promised fewer ā€œcensorship mistakes.ā€

Meta has also elevated conservatives to key roles and moved content moderation operations from California to Texas, mirroring Elon Muskā€™s strategies.

While the changes may alienate liberals and some advertisers, analysts expect minimal financial impact on Meta.

    Why?

    Youā€™re actually asking why?

    Because Mark Zuckerberg is a fucking Nazi, just like Trump and Musk.

      WOW. He just wears the uniform and marches to the beat because he might be persecuted otherwise. Itā€™s totally different, even though itā€™s only noticeable if you can literally read his mind. Next youā€™ll say those nine people sitting at a table with a nazi are nazis.
