Surprising from Zuckerberg

Crickets from "blue team" here on LOTS. None would discredit WaPo. No dismissal out of hand of right-wing conspiracy theories? Censoring? Media bias?

paywall. not sure if there's a team blue. its nyshore guy and maybe someone else. then very tiny few who are over trump. team color is the issue.
 
i also dont have twitter.
Hope this helps.




 
social media is a cancer in general. you have the government going way out of bounds and other people posting way out of bounds things. its horrible.

i did laugh at the rural person in arkansas believing anything posted there. but then again this has been an issue from the beginning of the country with newspapers, letters, magazines etc. govt was worse back in that time. how do you stop it?

First you get rid of bad journalists. I would say they are the root causes of social media bad information. What accountability do they face? The same you get people out of practicing law. You get them out of the industry. This lady from PBS should be barred from journalism for making up Trump told Bibi not to do a ceasefire. She claimed she read it on Axios, which never had that in a report. If people want to lose their jobs over this, watch how quickly it cleans up.

You also put a disclaimer when you log into these platforms that not everything may be true.

For example all of the idiots on social media are quoting the idiot from PBS who is supposedly a journalist. That idiot doesn't say something irresponsible and you don't have the chain reaction that theTwitterGuy posted.

it happens on both sides. one side tends to believe more absurd things than the other (like the vaccine is a microchip that will kill everyone at the press of a button etc). but it happens on both sides.

both candidates give a lot of ammo. one candidate wont stop giving ammo himself.

TDS, like Trump you just can't stop yourself and talk about the issue, you have to go for Trump at some point in every post. You probably don't like him because he's like you in many ways.
 
We've now elevated whataboutism to the point of excusing any bad behavior from rivals of Trump, and are now on the cusp of electing a second incompetent as a result.

So is anyone that thinks Harris is the worse of the choices a Trumper in your view?

Of course. These people would vote for serial killers over Trump. The only two people in history they might vote for Trump over are Hilter and Putin. That's not a guarantee either, but other than that, vote against Trump no matter what.

This statement in the article makes the whole article ho-hum. Big headline but not much substance.

But Zuckerberg also said Meta’s content moderation actions were its own and not the result of government compulsion — a characterization consistent with the Supreme Court’s ruling that the plaintiffs failed to show a direct connection between government pressure and the removal of their posts.
