Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is swiftly reversing course before Donald Trump takes office. Zuckerberg openly used Meta, formerly Facebook, as a propaganda tool to influence US elections, promote the COVID agenda, and deplatform anyone speaking out against the establishment.
Zuckerberg began to change his tune over the summer when his company was investigated by the House Judiciary for censoring free speech. The media mogul pointed the finger at Biden and Harris, insisting they “repeatedly pressured” him to censor content before and during their time in the White House.
“I believe the government pressure was wrong and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it,” Zuckerberg wrote in the letter dated Aug. 26, 2024, and posted on the committee’s Facebook page and to its account on X. Anyone who published “disinformation” was censored. You were not allowed to question the COVID narrative and anyone who did was deplatformed. They even removed Donald Trump from the outlet. Anyone who mentioned vaccinations, lockdowns, or the origins of the COVID virus were removed from social media without warning.
Zuckerberg hid the Hunter Biden laptop story ahead of the 2020 US Presidential Election and promoted the Russian collusion hoax. The invisible hand was at play, naturally, as the Facebook founder was able to prevent the break-up of his company by pouring hundreds of millions into the election and then blamed Russia for buying advertisements on Facebook during the 2016 election. Mark Zuckerberg dumped more than $400 million into manipulating the 2020 presidential election where Democratic operatives typically funneled the money. These were often areas where voter canvassing was used in Biden’s get-out-the-vote effort.
The establishment called his actions “electoral infrastructure.” “The idea here was to make sure local election jurisdictions across the country had the resources they needed to help people vote safely during a pandemic,” he stated back in August 2024. The truth of the matter is that he weaponized social media to promote political rhetoric. His company, with the backing of the establishment, determined what was “misinformation” and who could and could not have a voice.
Now, he is pointing the finger at the “legacy media” for promoting misinformation about Trump. He has opted to switch the fact-checking process to a “community notes” method similar to what Elon Musk has offered on X. “We tried in good faith to address those concerns without becoming the arbiters of truth. But the fact checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created, especially in the US,” Zuckerberg added. “So over the next couple of months, we’re going to phase in a more comprehensive community note system.”
He also said that forbidden keywords relating to migration and gender would no longer be restricted. “What started as a movement to be more inclusive has increasingly been used to shut down opinions and shut out people with different ideas,” Zuckerberg said. “And it’s gone too far. So I want to make sure that people can share their beliefs and experiences on our platforms.”
Zuckerberg is in full damage control mode. He donated $1 million to Trump’s campaign when it was clear that Harris would lose. The far leftist puppet is suddenly a patriot who praises the First Amendment after spending his career silencing conservative voices.
“The U.S. has the strongest constitutional protections for free expression in the world. Europe has an ever increasing number of laws institutionalizing censorship and making it difficult to build anything innovative there. Latin American countries have secret courts that can order companies to quietly take things down. China has censor apps from even working in the country.” China is now to be vilified as the popularity of TikTok grows.
Fact-checking agencies like PolitiFact said they had no warning that Zuckerberg was halting his mass censorship program. Zuckerberg hired Joel Kaplan, a Republican policy head who has criticized his tactics endlessly, to fix his mess. “This program has been a major part of the global fact-checking community’s work for years,” she said. “People are upset because they saw themselves as partners in good standing with Meta, doing important work to make the platform more accurate and reliable,” one agency head told reporters. There were over 170 agencies across the world working on behalf of the establishment to remove content. As with those indoctrinated by progressive ideology, they actually believed that they were making a difference and protecting the public.
Zuckerberg was willing to participate in stifling American’s First Amendment rights and swaying public perception. As of this writing, the platform is still removing content that it deems inappropriate or misinformation. This man broke laws on behalf of the establishment but now wants to be in Trump’s good graces. Who would trust this platform now? It is almost comical to believe that ANY social media platform is void of some form of censorship.
