?? If you go through insta reels and comments you will encounter a metric called "n words / minute", I don't think meta cared about moderation at any point

They put Dana White who heads the UFC on the board, all because Zuckerberg did Jujitsu... Jujitsu and the UFC has stange political affiliations to chechen forces Putin sometimes employs.

They're a hyper masculine male traditionalist culture. So it all ties back into that BS.

They call it "Sportswashing" - using Jujitsu to slide extremist politics onto someone. Zuckerberg fell tor it hook line and sinker. Libertarian to pro Russia pipeline. Anti-woke fascism in practice.

As a MMA enjoyer, Dana White being put in charge of anything is fucking scary. He is an extremely evil and ruthless man. He is so open about treating fighters like complete shit saying "its better to keep them hungry because then they are more motivated to preform".

Dana is at the forefront of Saudi sportswashing and pushing right wing culture on young men. He hooked trump up with Nelk and got Trump infront of massive influencers and their audiences.

Hearing Zuck speak longform a few years ago I actually thought he was left leaning and a reasonable guy. But that was bullshit, the guys morals are about as strong as a wet paper bag.

I like how he went from the Caesar cut and bland shirt to the style of what current-day 16-20 year old guys are rockin.

And by "like," I mean that I'm glad he still looks uncanny despite how normal his new style is, because he's a POS and nobody should sympathize with him.

Now he just looks like Andy Dick.

Minus the Andy. So, just a dick.

People are free to out themselves as ignorant on Meta. Technology is getting crazy.

[–] SlothMama@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

This has always been the case.

I left facebook after years of having meta not do anything about blatant transphobia and ableism that I reported to them. I got a death threat late last year and that was the final straw for me

Zuckerberg has mental illness.

Zuckerberg has a moral defect. Evil is not a medical problem.

I feel comfortable decreeing conservatives are a mental illness.
