Sheryl Sandberg said last week's siege of the US Capitol building was not primarily organized on Facebook.
Facebook's chief operating officer said the siege, in which a violent mob stormed the Capitol building, was organized online, but on platforms that don't have Facebook's ability to "stop hate." "We know this was organized online," Sandberg said at the Reuters Next conference on Tuesday. "We took down QAnon, Proud Boys, Stop the Steal, anything that was talking about possible violence last week. Our enforcement is never perfect, so I'm sure there were still things on Facebook. I think these events were largely organized on platforms that don't have our abilities to stop hate, and don't have our standards, and don't have our transparency.
Last Wednesday, a pro-President Donald Trump mob broke into the House and Senate chambers seeking to stop Congress from counting electoral votes to certify Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 election. The violence resulted in at least five deaths and dozens of arrests.
Sandburg lacks a moral compass! Do not believe her she lies!
😂
Let’s all “Lean In” to the truth for a change

Who knows if this is true as of yet. But Facebook was definitely a major tool in the disinformation campaign that provided the insurrection's ideological basis. And the platform made the business decision to allow political ads to lie if they wanted to.
Facebook is dangerous because old dumb people go on their and think everything is news worthy accurate. My elderly mum and her friends share the most crazy stuff.
She is lying.
