Mark Zuckerberg Admits Biden-Harris Administration Pressured Him to Censor Dissenters on Covid and Hunter's Laptop; Admission Directly Contracits DHS Sec. Mayorkas' Claim He Never Asked Social Media Companies to Censor Anything

And by "someone" I mean a lot of people.

Mark Zuckerberg says he regrets that Meta bowed to Biden administration pressure to censor content, saying in a letter that the interference was "wrong" and he plans to push back if it happens again.
Meta's CEO aired his grievances in a letter Monday to the House Judiciary Committee in response to its investigation into content moderation on online platforms. Zuckerberg detailed how senior administration officials leaned on the company to censor certain posts about Covid-19, including humor and satire, and "expressed a lot of frustration" when the social media platform resisted.
"I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it," Zuckerberg wrote. "I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards due to pressure from any Administration in either direction -- and we're ready to push back if something like this happens again."
Zuckerberg also expressed regret for essentially hiding content related to coverage by the New York Post about Hunter Biden ahead of the 2020 election that the FBI warned may have been rooted in a Russian disinformation operation.
"It's since been made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation, and in retrospect, we shouldn't have demoted the story," he wrote.

The Biden-Harris White House doubled down on censorship:

The White House issued a statement defending the administration's approach to Covid-19 information.
"When confronted with a deadly pandemic, this Administration encouraged responsible actions to protect public health and safety," the statement said. "Our position has been clear and consistent: we believe tech companies and other private actors should take into account the effects their actions have on the American people, while making independent choices about the information they present."

The Biden-Harris White House has a problem: They have repeatedly sent out their cabinet secretaries and other high-ranking officials to perjure themselves before Congress and claim they "never" pressured social media companies to censor anything:

Sure.

I even believe it, to a point. Zuck's censorship for his own purposes wasn't a problem, though. He isn't anti-censorship, he just bristles at having to answer to the Party.

They may technically not be lying. This administration -- and the entire deep state -- doesn't act like a political organization or even an economic one like a company.

They act like criminal mafia organizations. There is no chain of command other than to create plausible deniability for the bosses. No "orders" are ever given to do anything. The mafia Don never says "hey guys, I want you to whack this asshole." But everyone below him already knows what to do.

The yutes and the non aligned are reevaluating everything that the Dems and their Media propagandists have claimed. The oldsters, not so much as they pretty much ended their political development years ago.

The question is what is the increasingly bumbling and failing Deep State that is becoming reviled as a bunch of grifters, liars, and power mad petty tyrants is going to do about it. They have lost their mandate of Heaven but many of them fear losing power for personal reasons that might spur them to rash decisions.

I don't think anyone really knows because it relies on predicting the actions of the large number of individuals composing the Deep State. Don't think Yeltsin or the idiot Commies trying to oust Gorbachev knew how it would resolve either.

83 A preview of November:

Macron in France called a snap election, lost the election to the far left, and proceeded to ignore the election results.

Mark Steyn:

On June 9th the President of France dissolved the National Assembly and called a snap parliamentary election. He and his bloodless technocrat "centrists" lost. The far left won. Although they did not have an overall majority, in the normal course of events they would have expected to have first crack at forming a government.

Instead, Macron refused the resignation of his prime minister and announced that the devoted acolyte would remain in office "for the time being". "For the time being" has now gone on for two months - which, in the entire history of the Fifth Republic, is unprecedented:

M Macron has now rejected the lefties' proposal for a government under its choice of PM, the little-known though not unappealing French commie-totty who serves as "chief financial officer" of Paris, Lucie Castets. His grounds for rejecting the lefties are that the country must not be "weakened", and Mme Castets could not win a confidence vote in the National Assembly. The latter may be true, but it's not for him to say.

If I'm translating this correctly, he's saying he thinks Republicans will control all branches of government come January 2025, Trump (and whoever he appoints) may be pissed at Zuck and actually bring some kind of consequence, so he's starting to lay the groundwork for some kind of lame defense or excuse NOW. Might also show he understands the public doesn't trust him and his social media empire, so he's paying lip service by saying "whoopsies, my bad. We'll do better next time, so no need to worry."

Not really. All are short term panicked kludges that rely on lessons from idiot authoritarian states that do not rely on taxes from common people to fund its state security apparatus.

What it does is harden the opposition to the point that revolutionary change is contemplated because people fear future losses in what they have more than future gains.

Macron is hastening the death of the Fifth Republic is what is going on and now both the right and left revile him and his dying party. The Left because Macron reneged on what they thought was the bargain. The Right because him and his merry band of assholes of a dying center prevented them from taking office by an unholy alliance with the left.

Macron is left in the middle, increasingly isolated, and considered an international joke for his actions in Ukraine and domestically. That is why he seized the Telegram guy, he is relying on external support from other countries for political survival.

Now the corporate world with the genius that only cowardly bean counters could produce, have made the Right their enemy.

They came out of this pretty well, truth be told. Zuck had to settle with them when he did, or else it would have come out that he in fact did steal the FB idea from them (emails disclosed after the settlement pretty much established that. He was supposed to be working with the Twins, but he worked on it on the side on his own). They took the $65mm settlement in stock, not cash, and rode it up for quite a while. They unloaded only to buy up a bunch of Bitcoin at under $20/token - most of which they still have.

They were on the cutting edge of two big internet innovations. That wasn't just blind luck on their part.

209 Did you all know that while Biden is on vacation in California, he had his entire family with him including Hunter. Then jetted back to Rehobeth again with the entire entourage. So while Biden completely ignores his job as President of the United States, taxpayers are funding flying his entire family from vacation spot to vacation spot including housing his entire family and Secret Service agents. This also applies to his very brief stays at the White House where the extended family also reside eating sleeping and enjoying the largesse of US taxpayers.

232 I actually think Zuckerberg does regret this and I believe he feels this letter is meaningful. Anyone who has ever worked closely with a CEO of a large corporation knows this well - they are very important in their world and they stop understanding it doesn’t necessarily transfer out to the real world. They get stuck in a place where they feel they should be judged by intentions. The reality is we are all judged by our actions.

If I were Zuckerberg’s HR buddy, I would tell him his letter is fine if he wants to go on record. BUT he now has to change the entire culture of his organization. He isn’t, and will never be, close enough to every decision made. Again, he shouldn’t be. If he has to make all those decisions himself, he doesn’t need his team. But he better darn well describe what he expects and that it gets cascaded. He also better be ready for 1 or 2 high level sacrificial lambs to prove he is serious. Someone will raise their hand for this by doing something dumb. They always do.

Nice use of word, "demoted". No, you blocked it completely. Instead of hitting "Post" and something happening like going to the link and retrieving an image to go along with a comment it sat there dead. Instead of other 'Friends' seeing your comment in their feed, and a link to the story it went nowhere.

Posted by: Zek at August 27, 2024 01:00 PM (5FPX4)

Kennedy was a late addition to the suit, and was told he had to apply separately. Then the circuit court stated he had standing according to the Supreme Court decision, and could continue his suit where Missouri v Biden couldn't.
According to Adam Khieraty, one of the original complainants, this means the whole kit and kaboodle can go forward behind Kennedy.
IF Zucks decides to pass all the documentation of censorship to the complainants, it would carry the case, but there is nothing to show that he will do so.
However, I think some of the defendants may have started day drinking due to the possibility.

Machiavelli always considered it better to be feared and respected than loved.

At the bottom of the Deep State, they are actually filling their apparatchiks full of fear about fantasies such as the Boogaloo Boyz etc. The most recent leaks at Ammoland of what the FBI considers extremists such as using Molon Labe, the Second Amendment, etc. is simply laughable on its face and not reflective of a confident and strong organization.

When they act on these stupid fedboyz fantasies, it inevitably causes mockery, hate, and dislike in the populace rather than fear and that leads to a spiral down the rabbit hole for them in an infinite regress which leads to total ineffectiveness in their tasks.
