Summary

President Joe Biden criticized Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to replace factchecking with community-moderated notes, calling it “really shameful” and “contrary to American justice.”

Zuckerberg defended the move, claiming factchecking undermined public trust and stating the company aims to prioritize free speech.

The decision follows Meta’s rollback of diversity and inclusion programs amid legal and political shifts.

Biden, in his final press call as president, emphasized the importance of countering misinformation, labeling Meta’s approach irresponsible and harmful to truth and public discourse.

      Ah. I assume then you’re one of those fake leftists who voted because you love a rigged system and support genocide and transphobia.

        LOL… You are really making it difficult to defend my previous comment.

        Look how they lash out. Sad.

        You should redirect that anger inwards, my friend. And take your bullshit purity tests elsewhere, I’m not interested.
