Didn’t Markey say he wanted to pass an Act that would remove “toxic” things from Facebook? Who gets to decide for everyone else what is or isn’t toxic? Would an anti-abortion Facebook post be considered “toxic” by Markey therefore be removed?

“Ya, what is going on? Mark Zuckerberg gave hundreds of millions to help steal the last election. He has supported the most leftest causes out there. Why are they going after him? Not that I am not glad to see it.”

Zuckerberg is obviously ignorant of the old Communist saying:

“The last capitalist we hang shall be the one who sold us the rope.”

“Ed grew up in a blue-collar neighborhood in Malden. As the son of a union leader, Ed learned his progressive values at his kitchen table–the same table where his mother would pay the bills and calculate how long the heat could be kept on during cold winter nights.”

https://www.edmarkey.com/

Ed and his union leader father must have lived in a big house.

“After graduating from Malden Catholic High School, Ed attended Boston College as a commuter student. He paid his way through Boston College by driving an ice cream truck, before enrolling in Boston College Law School four years later.”

https://www.edmarkey.com/

“When Ed refused to compromise in his fight for critical judicial reform, the Speaker of the House promptly removed Ed from the Judiciary Committee and had Ed’s desk thrown into the hallway.”

“Instead of rolling over and giving in to leadership, Ed owned his role as a disrupter and created a TV advertisement with a new campaign slogan, ‘The bosses can tell me where to sit, but no one tells me where to stand.’”

“Last February, Ed introduced the Green New Deal alongside Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, which sets in place a 10-year mobilization to achieve a green economy, taking into account every community and prioritizing environmental justice for all.”

Nothing more than sound bites for the media. They won’t lift a finger against Facebook.

He did everything but go "wink, wink". Zuckerberg does everything but give all Demagogic Party a-holes handjobs. This is just a Trojan Horse for the DNC to take undisputed control over all social media.

“At a hearing before the Committee on October 28, 2020, Zuckerberg stated to Senator Markey that Facebook no longer recommended political groups. However, media reports reveal that Facebook continued to recommend political groups that promoted violence, targeted elected officials, and supported insurrection after Zuckerberg made his commitment.”

“Senator Markey has been working to hold Facebook accountable on privacy protections for more than a decade. In 2011, then-Rep. Markey urged the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the company’s privacy practices after published findings that Facebook had been gathering information about the websites its users visited even after users logged out of Facebook, leading in part to the company agreeing to settle FTC charges that it deceived consumers by telling them they could keep their information on Facebook private, and then repeatedly allowing it to be shared and made public.
In 2012....
In 2013....
In 2014....
In 2017....
In 2018....
In 2019, on Facebook’s privacy settlement with the FTC (after the FTC alleged violations of its 2011 consent decree), Senator Markey said, ‘Facebook is getting away with some of the most egregious corporate bad behavior in the age of the internet.’”

They feel that FB hasn’t been censoring conservatives enough and has censored Leftists more. Obviously delusional, but as Sinema found, the Dems will turn on you in a heartbeat.

That’s how leftists are. Not loyal enough to the latest marching orders? Time for the purge. The left eats its own.
