Zuckerberg's #BLM rant and the dangers of corporate Thought Police

That Facebook is made up of employees which, just like the rest of society, represent America at large is something which can't be denied. To me, per media coverage afforded Zuckerberg in blanketing those who disagree with the tagline Black Lives Matter, the assumption is being made that Mark is either in the majority viewpoint or that Facebook's staff exists in a vacuum. Both assertions couldn't be further from the truth.

Hence why publicly available data, which has been widely distributed online, is critical in establishing the argument that these workers weren't "fringe" activists in any way. Judging by polling data released, a wide majority of Americans don't see eye to eye with the name or the motives of Black Lives Matter.

Geez. I don’t hate mark but I’d sure like to poke him in the snot locker. What a misguided guilt ridden little piece of crap he is. But typical of the leftist mentality. The only issue I see is kinda like someone who only uses cash for EVERYTHING and thus has no credit rating. If you don’t have any sort of “social media” life, how can you receive a social just-us rating? Sorry suckerburg, you’ll have to base mine on postings I make to other places. And I’m pretty sure my score would be close to zero.

“His company is on the forefront of the H-1B visa debate, arguing that more skilled foreign labor is needed to fill talent shortages here in America — “

If he thinks Black Lives Matter so much, he should hire and train Blacks born in the United States so as to improve their lives.

I can deny that easily. Facebook employees would, just like the rest of Silicon Valley, skew towards young tech people just out of college (low wages), foreign workers skewing more highly Asian and Indian than the rest of society. (more low wages) If black people consist of even 2$ of his employees, he is doing better than most tech firms.

I think Mark is a spoiled brat rich kid who thinks he’s superior to others (like many social leftist CEO’s these days). People will just drop out of facebook and already are as he “progresses.”

I believe that Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc. are now primarily institutions aimed at active social control. This Zuckerberg story is just small potatoes, really. Remember this headline? “Clinton Emails Reveal Google’s Role In Attempting To Oust Syria’s Assad.” Tip of the iceberg, I believe.

Is there anyone who doesn’t believe they will actively assist in the upcoming elections? Any doubt which side they will assist?
