On: Meta censored the No Kings Instagram account during a nationwide campaign

[bensonperry]

one thing i rarely see discussed here... okay, let's assume that meta intentionally has people internally that do things like "bring down the No Kings page specifically at this specific time for political gain." this is like conspiracy level stuff. do you think people at meta aren't liberal and care about this as well? if they were actually doing this people internally would be whistleblowing like crazy

have you met some of the upper management at companies?

nevermind that. you know companies like Palantir and Flock exist, each with hundreds or thousands of employees?

There's plenty of sociopathy and apathy to go around.

Upper management usually do not personally have direct operational control of systems. Sometimes they will have a flunky, but these are heavily audited systems. Other people can review what happened without asking anyone's permission.
