Zuckerberg said senior Biden administration officials “repeatedly pressured” Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, to “censor” content in 2021. “I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken,” he wrote to House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). “Like I said to our teams at the time, 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 added.
See Zuckerberg’s statement
I’m not even sure he said what you’re claiming he said, but regardless are we really saying “well, zuckerberg said it must be true!”? Please tell me we’re not there.
E-mails have been independently verified. The story is independent of Giuliani.
Your language is so tricky. I wonder why. Yes, some emails have been verified. But not all.
There is absolutely no evidence of Russian involvement between the point that the laptop was submitted for repair in April 2019 and the FBI subpoenaing the laptop in December 2019.
Again, tricky language. There are questions about how it got there at all, and there are chain of custody questions too. So sure, if they planted it, there is no evidence of their involvement after doing so.
The FBI suggesting to facebook and twitter that the laptop was Russian Propaganda is pure misinformation.
Except, again, according to the article you have posted and referenced multiple times, Zuckerberg says the FBI never said anything about the laptop. You seem to be picking and choosing when to believe Zuckerberg, conveniently when it suits your conclusion.
I’m not even sure he said what you’re claiming he said
“well, zuckerberg said it must be true!”? Please tell me we’re not there.
Well, he wrote that in a public letter to the House Judiciary committee. Let’s see the FBI disagree or arrest him for misinformation.
some emails have been verified. But not all.
The damaging ones have. In particular the “10% for the big guy” email is genuine.
It’s since been made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation
Notice the language here, he says “the reporting” was not disinformation, nothing about whether the laptop itself was part of any disinformation campaign. You’ve been very careful with your language, it’s surprising that you can’t see this deliberate use of language to sidestep any actual statement about the the laptop itself.
The damaging ones have.
So we agree that they haven’t all been verified, exposing what was obfuscated in your claim.
And why have you abandoned the central theme of your claim that the FBI pressured them about the laptop? Again it appears you believe zuck when he kind of says something that confirms your point, but when he says something that contradicts it, you just ignore it.
Notice the language here, he says “the reporting” was not disinformation, nothing about whether the laptop itself was part of any disinformation campaign.
What? If reporting the laptop contents is not misinformation then the laptop contents are not misinformation.
And why have you abandoned the central theme of your claim that the FBI pressured them about the laptop?
My claim that the FBI deliberately mislead Twitter and Facebook was detailed above with accompanying evidence. You’ve brought nothing new to contradict that claim.
