Trump Effect! Mark Zuckerberg Announces Big Changes Toward Free Speech on Facebook and Instagram [Video]"...It feels like we're in a new era now ... our US-based Content Review is going to be based in Texas. As we work to promote free expression, I think that will help us build trust to do this work in places where there's less concern about the bias of our teams..." -Mark Zuckerberg, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Meta Platforms, Inc.
No doubt this action caused raised eyebrows and hackles on the "progressive" Left, while simultaneously bringing hope to those who value freedom of speech—albeit cautious hope. After all, how many of us have ended up in "Facebook jail" or seen our posts "shadow-banned" because they didn't line up with the progressive narrative? However, between that meeting with Trump and the plain-to-see evidence of X's highly effective "Community Notes" in correcting inaccurate information, it appears that Zuckerberg is changing course and ditching those so-called "Fact Checkers" whose bias was all too obvious. In a short video circulating on X, Zuckerberg explains how pressure from Democrats to censor what they deemed "disinformation" made it impossible for him to implement any moves away from such censorship. But that now, since President Trump will be back in power, the time is right to make changes to Meta, directly affecting Facebook and Instagram. Anti-woke activist Robby Starbuck notes in a post on X: "...Elon's courage with X is contagious. This is the boldest move Zuckerberg has ever made. He's also moving some key jobs to Texas to account for the political bias of Meta being in California. He describes these sweeping changes as part of a culture shift that came about during the election. They'll also begin recommending political content again which they had stopped doing as part of the left's push to end "disinformation" which was really an attempt to stop people from getting the truth. "He says he couldn't have made these changes under Biden because Democrats were pushing for more censorship and it emboldened other countries to do the same which put the company on a defensive footing." Skeptical you say? Yes, probably most of us are. However, we'll find out in the coming months whether Zuck puts action to his words, which sound pretty sincere. As Robby puts it: "It's going to take time to see that this is a real dedication to change and not a stunt to get into Trump's good graces (maybe in an attempt to get TikTok sold to them?) but assuming this is real, it's a huge deal. I've given Zuck a lot of criticism especially since my accounts on IG/FB have both been censored but if he's serious then I give him credit because the leftists at Meta corporate are going to be throwing major tantrums over this."
