I'm more shocked there really weren't any shocking revelation. It's pretty much what everyone expected. - Zuckerberg wants people to like him.. okay.. - Weird personal details about lingerie budgets.. an insinuation about Sandberg having some homosexual relationship.. eye roll - The Myanmar stuff we already knew about. It's bad. It seems negligent, but not like Zuckerburg wants to drown babies (all the FANG don't wan…

I concur. The whole thing was lame and whiny.

But you'll be downvoted by the hopelessly woke here. As will I.

I hope my fellow leftist spam at least some factual information about israels atrocities. Since you might not find them on facebook. And yes yes, i know what you want to reply: "but whatabout hamas". Do it :)

When you support Hamas, you already lost the argument.

Oh those pesky people who want other people to behave like decent human beings rather than assholes. Bloody hopelessly woke!

Another source of allegations about the behaviour at Meta comes from 7amleh's report on how they systematically suppressed what Americans and others were allowed see about Israel's invasion of Palestine. https://7amleh.org/storage/Advocacy%20Reports/Delete%20the%2...

This paper seems to mainly suggest that the suppression is happening on the internal platforms that Meta's employees and content-moderators use, for discussions, rather than that they're censoring what I would see an an end user?

You're right, this report isn't about the actual censorship of end-user content, but that was also quite widespread. Zuck even himself admitted how the US government would pressure them to censor certain things, but he discussed it in the context of COVID. Similar things happened about Israel-Palestine as well

Oh it is an occupation. Here is an Amnesty report from 2017 on the topic. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/campaigns/2017/06/israel-o... Good job claiming blood libel: I have never spoken about judaism, only about Israel' evil and brutal war crimes, occupation, and genocide. With regard to the numbers reported by the Gazan Ministry of Health, here is an article that describes how the count is the most conservative p…

Americans are one of the most, if not the most, propagandized populations on the planet, and the worst part is a large cohort of them fully believe they aren’t.

For what it's worth, Americans still have access to opposing viewpoints. You can view Press TV, Russia Today, etc. Authoritarian states will ban completely access to news it doesn't want its population to read

Here's are some references for you. Children and doctors: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/10/09/opinion/gaza-... Press: https://www.aa.com.tr/en/1-year-of-gaza-genocide/1-year-of-g... All of these are easy to discover with a simple Google search. I encourage you to break out of the bubble you appear to be in.

Don't forget HN is likely frequented by senior figures from all the major tech companies so that kind of comment on here doesn't necessarily indicate that such sentiment is leaking out into the wider world at volume.

Hah! Pretty good way to sniff that particular breeze then, and there's something rotten in the air. Having said that, the other thread on this topic was bent into what I consider to be a more appropriate shape, so there must be a wide swathe covered.

Interesting how that happens sometimes in HN. Two threads about the same thing. One of them sane discussion, the other a bunch of kiss-the-ring-of-a-corporation pseudo-worship.
