" On August 26, 2024, Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted a frank letter to
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan that stated: “In 2021, senior officials from the Biden
Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our team for months to censor
certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with
our teams when we didn’t agree.”
Previously, in August 2022, Mr. Zuckerberg confirmed that Facebook’s censorship of the
New York Post story about Hunter Biden’s laptop followed warnings from the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) that Facebook should be cautious of misinformation and foreign interference
ahead of the 2020 election.1
Similarly, Twitter’s decision to censor the same New York Post story about Hunter
Biden’s laptop followed the company’s close relationship with state and federal officials—
including the FBI.2 On February 8, 2023, the Committee held a hearing titled “Protecting
Speech from Government Interference and Social Media Bias, Part 1: Twitter’s Role in
Suppressing the Biden Laptop Story” to investigate how and why Twitter suppressed the New York Post. "

" Love, Mark.

Hold it, now I'm confused. When Mark was spending 450 million and controlling the content on FB getting trump beat in 2020 he was a good capitalist right? Now, he's a capitalist pig whore, correct? Embarrass yourself if you must. Carry on.

Strange how too much money corrupts people's souls.

Remember early on in Zuckerberg's rise when he promised to donate half of his wealth to good causes. hahahaha.

Outing the usual suspects on this board is so easy it isn't even fun. Since you like to read, enjoy! Is NPR still acceptable? Have a grand day all.

" With a tight budget and little help from the federal government, Chester County applied for an election grant from the Center for Tech and Civic Life, a previously small Chicago-based nonprofit that quickly amassed hundreds of millions of dollars in donations to help local election offices — most notably, $350 million from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan.

"Honestly, I don't know what we would have done without it," Turner said."

For fascism to thrive, fascists need to dictate the narrative.

Trump’s allies now control what you see on X, TruthSocial, Snap, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, and soon TikTok.

Plus, Sinclair Broadcast Group controls local news in 40% of US households.

The Oligarchs tell us this is free speech.

They say jump and you say how high?

IF it's true that laughter is the best medicine reading some of you guys should help me make it to 110 years old without a walker. I miss a few of the old sensible liberals, did they give up the fight? Carry on.

Nah. When 'flooding the zone with shit' became the MAGA modus operandi, the WWE kayfabe as practiced so effectively by Orange Jesus, they bailed.

The idiocracy, as predicted, is winning.

Congratulations

I thought I would remind you that FB and Twitter pre-Musk, already told us what happened, period. YOU refuse to accept the facts. You intellectuals truly are deep critical thinkers! Carry on, while you continue to destroy the party.

“Protecting

Suppressing the Biden Laptop Story” to investigate how and why Twitter suppressed the New York Post. "



Yes, HCL, so nuanced we had to get the Supreme Court to decide on election interference. Y'all wanted Government interference in free speech in elections. Even a suspect Supreme Court thinks you were clearly erroneous and presented no proof.

SNIP The U.S. Supreme Court handed a major victory for the Biden administration Wednesday, throwing out a lower court ruling that had placed major restrictions on the ability of government officials to communicate with social media companies about their content moderation policies.

While the court’s ruling was procedural, it was nonetheless a stark repudiation of two lower courts in the South, and their eagerness to embrace conspiracy theories about alleged government coercion of social media companies.
A right-wing legal and political campaign has disrupted the work of government agencies meant to safeguard voting and subjected researchers studying online harms to harassment and death threats.
Untangling Disinformation
What it means for the election that the government can talk to tech companies

Writing for a liberal-conservative coalition of six justices, Justice Amy Coney Barrett said that neither the five individuals nor the two states who sued the government had legal standing to be in court at all. She said they presented no proof to back up their claims that the government had pressured social media companies like Twitter and Facebook into restricting their speech. “Unfortunately,” she said, the Fifth Circuit court of appeals “relied on factual findings that are “clearly erroneous.” SNIP

So go hide behind Hunter Biden, we know what you're up to and your corrupt court judges.
