Summary
Mark Zuckerberg ended Metaās factchecking program on Facebook and Instagram, replacing it with user-submitted āCommunity Notes,ā similar to Twitter.
The move is part of a broader shift to the political right, aligning with Donald Trumpās incoming administration.
Zuckerberg criticized factcheckers as āpolitically biasedā and promised fewer ācensorship mistakes.ā
Meta has also elevated conservatives to key roles and moved content moderation operations from California to Texas, mirroring Elon Muskās strategies.
While the changes may alienate liberals and some advertisers, analysts expect minimal financial impact on Meta.
Wealthy, insulated fashys think they have no use for the truth. That itās just an expense. And the people at large have not stepped up to correct them.
Itās so wild to me that all of these gun nuts cannot help but throwing out the point that itās to combat tyranny for any argument ever, and then when they finally see tyranny, theyāre literally buying fucking merch to further propagate it.
You could write this into a movie or TV show, and it would be poorly reviewed for not being realistic.
I think most of us could have predicted this decades and decades ago, though. Many are some of the same dinguses that fly the loser flag of traitors, after all.
We talking about that actual dish rag or the other dish rag with an X on it?
Well, the flag they should really fly if they want to celebrate ātheir heritageā is a white flag of surrender, since they lost.
Look around. No one is correcting them because they arenāt wrong. No one cares about truth. Lies make everyone so much happier.
Disagree. Lies make everyone angrier. Thatās what the lies are designed to do.
I donāt think theyāre designed either way, you can lie to a kid about how long a journey is as they have no real concept of time, this is a white lie, to stop them moaning about being stuck in the car. Lots of people (sheep) just want to be told the grass is greenest right where they are and thereās no need to look any deeper, ignorance is bliss. Lies should make people angry, but for some reason they donāt. Itās almost expected from certain people, like anyone in power will probably lie.
It only works for a short time. It will break. And break more violently the longer it drags on.
They have a use for truth, but only when it suits them, otherwise itās just an opinion like any other.
