      Celeste was 28 weeks pregnant — at the start of her third trimester.

      I’m pro choice but that’s murder, bro. That’s like a 7 month old. She took a bunch of abortion meds and killed that child.

      My own son was born premature just a week more than that age, and he’s healthy and strong at 18 now.

      What a weird argument, Facebook didn’t commit the genocide, their very large platform was used amongst a few other platforms to spread hate by a very small group of people looking to do harm, and then they didn’t react quickly/aggressively enough to block online posts…

      They commissioned the independent review that uncovered these issues themselves, and then they even agreed with the results and tried to do better, while recognizing the challenges faced in moderating essentially the whole fucking world.
