I presume I’m supposed to care, but I dont, and I don’t know why anyone would.

So… Meta’s “plan” is to dodge responsibility?
Gee whiz… I sure never saw that coming…
Just be patient.
With all due respect, fuck the normies. The fediverse is better off without them.
If he’s trying to say “Biden wanted this but Trump already started it”
Which “he?”
Zuckerberg blames it exclusively and entirely on the Biden administration.
that tells me BOTH parties requested it. Hence, if you don’t like Biden because of this, you don’t want Trump either. And of course, vice versa. In short, this policy is not unique to either party or administration.
Exactly, but that’s explicitly not what Zuckerberg is saying. He’s saying that it was entirely and exclusively Biden, which is a lie.
Why did Zuckerberg choose now to make this announcement and publicly reveal the inside play?
There’s actually a tidbit that the author notes that points at the obvious reason for it.
In his letter to Congressional investigators, he flat-out said what everyone else has been saying for years now.
In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content…
The author then goes on to say though:
A few clarifications. The censorship began much earlier than that, from March 2020 at the very least if not earlier.
What’s significant about that? Trump was president then.
So Zuckerberg is rather obviously trying to pin entirely on the Biden administration a set of policies that were already in place under Trump.
To what end? Obviously to do the same thing he did in 2016 and 2020 - to overtly promote Trump.
This particular one certainly not coincidentally plays into the whole Republican narrative that the Democrats are oppressive and dishonest, which in turn is meant to provide a context for their intention to dispute the election results when Trump loses. Zuckerberg is simply doing his part to further that narrative.
Yes - that’s exactly what it is. Vichy Twitter is to historical Twitter as Vichy France was to historical France.
I stole it myself, so you’re welcome to it.
I have no idea who originated it, but from the first time I saw it, I haven’t used anything else. It just so perfectly sums it up.
So there are only two possibilities - either Vichy Twitter is such a poorly run site that it crashed on its own, or it’s such a poorly run site that it’s not prepared to deal with being DDOSed.
Altruistic? ALTRUISTIC?!
Just who in the fuck does he think he is?!
The only altruists on Reddit are the users who freely provided the content that this fucking parasite feeds off of.
I’m so glad I left that awful shithole of a site.
I think you have forums confused with microblogs.
