Same. Luckily you can add his name to the block list.
He is going to be bare ass naked running down the halls screaming for employees to "come at me bro"
He'd probably win ngl.
I'm not glad that someone stood up for the billionaire.
But good for you ?
I aint standing up for him just pointing out hes been trained to fight by professionals. Ohh and hes won competitions for it.
Yeah people drastically underestimate the gulf between randos and anybody who's had even a little decent training.
If you have a problem with it, organize a Facebook union. The only way small voices matter to CEOs are when they speak collectively.
if they weren't already organizing, I bet they are now. CWA has been receiving so many high quality leads for the last 2 years that they literally do not have enough dues-paying members to fund all of those campaigns. They're one of the largest unions in the US already.

Good to know that there’s still some decent people there.
Anyone 'decent' there is a wage-slave that doesn't have an out. If you can leave meta and don't there's no decency there.
announced content moderation changes that will allow users to say that LGBTQ+ people have “mental illness,”
Someone gets triggered by free speech here.
Anyway, wind blows the other way now. Zuck doesn't want to piss against it
I think community notes is a better form of moderation. And focusing on stopping the more extreme bad shit instead of thought crimes seems like a good thing too.
who is talking about thought crime? spreading fake news can be dangerous in a way that results in actual deaths.
"In modern usage, the term "thought crime" is often used metaphorically to describe situations where individuals are penalised or ostracised for holding unapproved or unpopular opinions, or for expressing dissenting views." - dr gpt
Seems to fit pretry perfectly
In the context of trans people, anti trans rhetoric goes away beyond "unapproved" or "unpopular" though. It's straight up non-factual pseudoscience at best. A lot of it is straight up lies and libel/slander. It does real, lasting harm. That's not "thought crime" as you describe.
That exactly fits my definition. My definition says nothing about outcomes or if its true or not my definition is simply about expressing an opinion and you disliking it is proving me right.

thats different from fake news, still
Please define "fake news" and dont say news that isnt true because then u have to decide who chooses what is objective reality.

For all the crap on X, the Community Notes I've seen have been actually kinda good. Not that I've seen a lot, because algorithmically sorted public microblogging is still discursive cancer with ideological hepatitis that I mostly try to avoid.
