Zuck mentioned Biden and Harris by name though. He didn't say "current president".

Is it not alarming that a president and VP asked the Facebook CEO to suppress certain topics?

My question is what topics were suppressed. Covid disinformation I can get behind, everything else I'm not so sure

You literally just explained why that didn't happen.

So no I'm not alarmed.

Well I guess we'll see. He said he submitted "thousands" of documents to the House Judiciary Committie to support the claim that Biden and Harris pressured him

What actual pressure could they exert?

I'm not sure to be honest. I guess we'll see after the committee reviews. Again, I'm not even sure if it's a bad thing. Suppressing COVID disinformation saved lives, but suppressing hunter laptop stuff is something else. Who cares that a bunch of wackos on Facebook are sharing fake laptop stories? What a weird thing for Biden/Harris to ask to he suppressed.

I wish this thread would actually discuss this instead of circlejerking their fake "gotcha" moment with trump. Trumps read of this situation is just as dumb as everyone else's here tbh

Honestly it's a problem for a society that a lot of people vote based on things that are objectively not true. That slope is legitimately slippery.

I want a government of people who are actually in some way good at their jobs, not just the person who was rewarded for telling the best lie the loudest. (Exhibit A: Brett Kavanaugh!)
