At the crossroads of platforms, Zuckerberg chooses the side of barbarism

End fact-checking, because fact-checkers are “very politically biased”;

Return to the promotion of political content (in this case, from the extreme right, which knows how to surf the attention economy of the networks), because “people are missing it”;

Release of content about gender and immigration (currently, says Zuck, platforms are “out of touch” with the conversations taking place in society).

Under the guise of “promoting free expression”, Zuckerberg himself recognizes that a “series of bad things will happen (to be released)”, because today there are “many errors and a lot of censorship”.

By saying that “innocent people have censored content”, he makes a caricature of the laws and regulatory standards, which provide for gradual sanctions (various types of warning before suspension or eventual exclusion) and stricter scrutiny for large accounts (people who are more likely to of causing social harm). The “ordinary citizen” has never been under any kind of threat from regulation.

By mentioning the result of the American elections as a hobbyhorse dynamo, Zuckerberg makes it clear that his motivations are political. Kneeling to Trump means working on Make America Great Again’s own version of fallacious imperialism.
