Commissar SFLUFAN Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 In an interview with Recode, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg defended the site’s decision to not remove accounts that post false information, saying that some Holocaust deniers aren’t “intentionally getting it wrong.” The interview with Recode can be found here.

TwinIon Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 The amazing thing about that exchange to me is that it's Zuck that brings up Holocaust denial in the first place. I'd be a stupid answer if Kara was the one coming up with hypotheticals, but he just Zucked himself. Personally, I don't care if Holocaust deniers are intentionally misleading people or if they actually believe it, literally no good comes from giving them a platform. I imagine that he's worried about a slippery slope argument where now people think you need to ban climate change deniers and Sandy Hook truthers and whatever else. That honesty doesn't sound bad to me, but I understand why Facebook doesn't want to have that discussion. I also don't think it's particularly difficult to carve out some special cases like they did in Myanmar, and I'd be fine putting Holocaust denial in that category.

sblfilms Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I think FB is either a platform or it isn’t. Opposing curation of viewpoints is not invoking slippery slopes, it’s the entire argument. They have to decide what they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osxmatt Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Facebook’s problem is they allow all points of view, even ones that are objectively false or hateful. They believe this makes them look tolerant and reasonable, when in fact it does the opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still a douchebag, but meh. If he was trying to say he won't limit incorrect hate speech by users on his platform because the user(s) in question are so stupid they genuinely believe their hate speech rather than just peddling it to influence others or spread propoganda is the dumbest way to justify their continued ability to have a platform when they shouldn't have one, arguably. That's a big deal, because Facebook is a huge platform that reaches many people and Zuck is discussing Facebook policy here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarSolo Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Meanwhile, it’s considered hate speech to call Ivanka Trump “white trash” on Facebook. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
