I think the user base that would "benefit" from this decision has given up on Facebook a long time ago already.
Does anyone under the age of 45 even still use Facebook that frequently?

I really hope he doesn't get raped by shareholders over it. He has been blessed with the trust of elderly boomers so he may actually guide them to the promised land.

Considering he has a controlling share, he can basically do what he wants. Shareholders spent years trying to stop him from focusing everything on the Metaverse.

This is the part when the mask really slips. This is a purely economic move and Zuck wants to use Trump to shove his company down foreign countries throats whether they want it or not, Trump will probably go along with it since it'll bolster America's soft power. Whos to say Facebook won't go back to their old ways when the Dems are back in power, except this time Zuckerberg will have even more sway and capital at his disposal.

Considering the EU Commission wants to probe companies for simply platforming "right wing extremist" politicians and "misinformation", it would only be an improvement.

Your posts in the past. Sorry you're so fragile, little guy

Is he still trying to do the metaverse? That thing was so retarded

Dana White is on Meta’s board I guess?

[Jew-ish]

this is what happens when you hire dana white

Wether or not Dana White is doing good working at Meta, he's a huge piece of shit.

Dana was a cardio kickboxing instructor who was friends with the Fertita brothers, who come from a casino family. Lorenzo Fertitta was the commissioner of the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) and kept blocking mma from being sanctioned in Nevada at that time, and other states followed suit. This bankrupted the UFC, which allowed them to swoop in and buy it for 2 million, after which MMA was sanctioned in Nevada. Pure corruption.

Dana is also in part responsible for fighters getting paid less than 18% of revenue for the last 17 years (the records are only available due to multiple anti trust/monopsony lawsuits going back to 2007). Professional WMBA players make more than 99% of UFC athletes.

Dana is a billionaire crony who made his money off of exploiting the athletes that made his product successful and lies as easily as he breathes. Total CEO death.

It feels as if the west right now is currently in its own period of Boluan Fanzheng. For those unfamiliar with modern Chinese history, this was the period after the Cultural Revolution where the radicals were marginalized and Party rhetoric shifted from "revolution" to "stability". I think the west's own "Cultural Revolution" started some time in the early 2010s and peaked with the Pandemic shutdown-induced mass hysteria of the Summer of 2020.

I think this shift is coming from both the bottom-up and the top-down. In China, the Cultural Revolution got out of hand because the student-led Red Guards came to the conclusion that they were a more effective vanguard for the revolution than the Party elite. A similar phenomenon is happening in the west, where the professional managerial class has realized that promoting cultural infighting is ultimately not good for their own bottom line.

But regular people are also increasingly burned out from social media-fuelled struggle sessions and competitions over ideological purity. The thing about radical political movements is that they require a lot of enthusiasm, which you can't maintain in the long-term. Especially when the goals that modern progressivism is demanding range from being nebulous ("We need to end racism!" - what does that look like?), unattainable ("America is stolen land!" - are we going to send the Mayflower back?), or sound nice in theory but are in practice deeply unpalatable ("Protect trans kids!" - sounds lovely, until your teenage daughter announces she wants her breasts cut off).

Thunderdomers love Dana because like them, he worships Donald Trump. So this post will upset a bunch of folks

raped by shareholders over it

Zucc literally does not answer to shareholders. Facebook follows the modern "Class A/B" stock scheme, where all the voting power remains with the founders until death (or they decide to intentionally divest, but that's not gonna happen)

It's shocking to me how quickly corpos are 180'ing, they're realizing they're losing public support fast. I don't mind that they're now against trannies and fact checking and shit but it feels so disingenuous. I think they shouldn't be spared from any upheaval just because they're switching sides.

It was always disingenuous. I have met true believers but they're cogs in the machine, nothing more.

 

[WonderWino]

Translation: they're saying one thing and will absolutely keep doing things as they have been, just quieter, FB is filled to the brim with troons, genderspecials and the usual idiots who would riot and sabotage the fuck out of the company if it actually does as they're claiming here

So do you think Zuckerberg has had a genuine change of heart or is this strategic maneuvering?

He keeps his barbecue sauce on a shelf, he doesn't have a heart to change.

 

[Sicko Hunter]

This is a step in the right direction but I fully agree with everyone here that this isn't indicative of some major shift by the elites.

Still, it would nice to have more free speech on platforms outside of X, where an autistic meltdown of the Breeder in Chief is always possible and often destructive.
