BMJ, one of the world’s most influential general medical journals, urges Facebook’s Zuckerberg to act over inaccurate, incompetent, and irresponsible “fact check” of the journal’s Pfizer vaccine trial investigation in an open letter.

    What is really interesting about Zuck is that he also wanted Facebook to allow people to advocate for whatever politics they wanted provided they did so politely, including white nationalism.

    This was honestly quite admirable that he initially wanted a more libertarian approach but he was absolutely harangued into cracking down on it by the ADL, SPLC, and dozens & dozens of organizations and politicians who believe it is their duty to deplatform.

    He might honestly be a pretty decent guy when it comes to what he believes, he just has no backbone whatsoever.

      If you’re looking for corporate America to be our saviors when it comes to this sort of thing, you’re just asking to be reamed. The only solutions that even have a chance of working are technological ones. Design a system where it can’t be censored, no one can be de-platformed, where it can’t be shut down. I don’t know how to design such a thing, and I don’t know if such a thing is even possible… but otherwise we’re all fucked. And that goes for everyone, regardless of their politics.

        I believe Odysee wants to essentially do that with failsafes for things like child pr0n.

        I think that tech could help end censorship but one of the issues is that the elites will do their very best to isolate the places where free speech does occur so it won’t have the intended effect on the rest of society.

      Cowardice is not a defensible excuse to committing evil. Rather, I spit on the cowards, as being equal to the villains raping the world

      “Decent guy” doesn’t cut it, seeing the business he created is responsible for so much repression of basic human rights - freedom of expression, informed consent to the real risk of the VAXX, etc

      There is a special place in hell for that p*ssyberg

        I agree because of the fact that he was already a millionaire. Perhaps even billionaire.

        He has no reason to bow down to the demands of others.

        If you have a billion dollars but can’t use it to insulate yourself from the world and live your values, what good is that?

          Jeffrey Epstein was also a billionaire. He ended up dead in jail

          You don’t know what the deep state is doing. Maybe Zuck had a thing for kiddies ? Who knows ? 3 letter agencies have ways and means of making things happen.

            To be fair, while I am not that big into this, it is the case that some people dispute whether or not he even died.

              He was a primary school teacher in NY. Suddenly he gets billions and is partying with really important people and politicians, and supplying them with endless kids to abuse.

              Nothing to do with CIA, Mossad blackmail ops on the Elite, I am sure wink. Trump admin was told to lay off him because he was with “intelligence”, as was the State Attorney who had prosecuted him in 2006, told he was “above his pay grade”. This is all facts that are known.

              He bought two islands, and his plane was called the Lolita express. His mansion had stashes of CDs marked with the kids’ names and the rich rapists that he was filming with hidden cameras for blackmail.

              Ghislaine Maxwell’s father was an intelligence operative, and he got “Epsteined” too.

              And just like that, the billions have evaporated, as have the names from the “Little Black Book”

              The whole thing was CIA ops

              It’s reasonable to dispute how he died, and it’s reasonable to speculate on why he was murdered, if he was. To dispute whether he died or not is whackadoo of the “the British queen is lizard people!” sort. Anyone who proposes that idea for any purpose other than entertainment (or without extraordinary evidence) is someone you should just stop listening too.

                I am not entirely sure. Yes, of course it’s a lot more likely he was killed or even did just hang himself to tie up the loose ends as they would want him to do as a Mossad agent.

                But the idea of a billionaire who is Intel getting a series of bribes in place to facilitate an escape doesn’t strike me as impossible.
