Transcript of Mark Zuckerberg's Tuesday meeting with Facebook employees, including his thoughts on Trump's recent posts, democracy, speech, and racial justice
weeks after the controversy over its content—until @JuddLegum started asking questions about it. https://popular.info/... https://twitter.com/... Jake Brukhman / @jbrukh : Mark Zuckerberg can't win. The only way forward for platforms is decentralization, the only status that can make them truly and credibly neutral. https://www.vox.com/... Vanita Gupta / @vanitaguptacr : Read this and pay attention. This is how Zuckerberg is thinking abt democracy, speech, and racial justice at a critical moment when our nation is on the brink. This is why I compare what he's doing now in the US to FB's role in Myanmar and the Philippines. https://www.vox.com/... Ainsley Harris / @ainsleyoc : It's almost like a moral compass would be a useful thing for a CEO to possess https://twitter.com/... Chris Blattman / @cblatts : Whether Zuckerberg is making good or bad calls, this is way too much power for one company and executive to have. Also... he is making bad calls. https://twitter.com/... Sharon Waxman / @sharonwaxman : Zuck responds with an 890-words non-response about voter suppression. Sample word soup: “Well, I'll spend most the time addressing the policy question you have, which I think is — that's a real question and why one of the things that I think we need to raise going forward... @shahmiruk : Gosh I feel like a parrot. MARK ZUCKERBERG IS DANGEROUS. https://twitter.com/... Shirin Ghaffary / @shiringhaffary : NEW: Here's the transcript of over an hour of leaked audio from Zuckerberg's tense meeting with Facebook employees yesterday, in which the CEO explained his rationale for not taking down Trump's “looting ... shooting” post. https://www.vox.com/... Ramsey Nasser / @ra : shocking to learn that a twerp who made a php website once to creep on girls may actually be a dumbfuck who shouldn't be anywhere near the reigns of democracy https://twitter.com/... Rachel Klein / @racheleklein : I CANNOT stress enough how little content knowledge & critical thinking skills Mark Zuckerberg has. EVERY teacher recognizes this type of kind in their classroom. You TRY to find an inroad w/him & hope to engage his empathy. Sometimes it works; it clearly didn't stick w/Mark. https://twitter.com/...
Nah, here is the problem... the word “I” appears 296 times in this transcript. answers about decisions that affect over 2 billion people. https://twitter.com/...
Reading this transcript you get the overwhelming sense that Mark might spend too much time gathering too many signals so that it is all noise and no decision is ever the right one: Transcript of Mark Zuckerberg's meeting with Facebook employees about Trump https://www.vox.com/...
Facebook employee: I don't know. Correct me if I'm wrong. Besides Maxine, everyone you've listed is white, correct? Mark Zuckerberg: That's correct. https://www.vox.com/...
