Yes, a history of trying to get to the truth of matters even if it's not popular in the zeitgeist.
Look at fsociety's comment in this same thread to see just how much misinformation is out there (which he helpfully corrects)
It just so happens a lot of misinformation is anti-corporate since many people want to believe every bad thing they hear about them. So I end up being one of the few commenters who say, actually, the big company did try here.
This is important because if every big company is supposed to be equally bad, there's no reputational penalty for the actually bad ones.
Funny, talking about the truth when your comment history is neck deep in right wing conspiracy and talking points.
The point people are making here is that Facebook shouldn't have done the impossible and created a perfect tech solution to moderate content, they should not have operated in these countries at all if they couldn't do it safely. They did not even try, instead they ignored internal reports on these problems for years and actively decided to make the problem worse with their single focus of growth. And for as you put it, only a few $ in advertisements, to fuel the fires of genocide.
Considering I've voted only democratic in every election in my life, and volunteered to help progressive candidates manage their campaigns in swing states, you're waaaay off base on my politics.
