“Last week, Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, formerly Facebook, made a stunning announcement. He was abolishing the company’s DEI programs and discontinuing its relationship with fact-checking organizations, which he admitted had become a form of ‘censorship.’ The left-wing [sic] media immediately attacked the decision, accused him of embracing the MAGA agenda, and predicted a dangerous rise in so-called disinformation. Zuckerberg’s move was carefully calculated and impeccably timed. The November elections, he said, felt like ‘a cultural tipping point towards once again prioritizing speech.’ DEI initiatives, especially those related to immigration and gender, had become ‘disconnected from mainstream conversation’ and untenable. This is no small about-face.” (01/14/25)
