Mark Zuckerberg says he had a 'visceral negative reaction' to Trump's post about shooting protesters but says the post will stay on Facebook

This has been an incredibly tough week after a string of tough weeks. The killing of George Floyd showed yet again that for Black people in America, just existing means risking your life. This comes weeks after the killing of Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor, and in the midst of Covid having a disproportionate impact on the black community in the US. It continues a long and devastating history of human loss going back centuries.

I've been struggling with how to respond to the President's tweets and posts all day. Personally, I have a visceral negative reaction to this kind of divisive and inflammatory rhetoric. This moment calls for unity and calmness, and we need empathy for the people and communities who are hurting. We need to come together as a country to pursue justice and break this cycle.

But I'm responsible for reacting not just in my personal capacity but as the leader of an institution committed to free expression. I know many people are upset that we've left the President's posts up, but our position is that we should enable as much expression as possible unless it will cause imminent risk of specific harms or dangers spelled out in clear policies.

There are heated debates about how we apply our policies during moments like this. I know people are frustrated when we take a long time to make these decisions. These are difficult decisions and, just like today, the content we leave up I often find deeply offensive. We try to think through all the consequences, and we keep our policies under constant review because the context is always evolving.

O’R’A’ - coming ’II,

ZUROU , NORA,

hblodget slippery slope.. either all is good to go or non but man this is going to get ugly

How is it public just because a tech billionaire has a bad feeling? Ever stop to think that not all people are as stupid as you think they are? Perhaps some people are not inflamed by Trump? Perhaps it’s just trump haters that are inflamed? 🤔

Has he any “viscera”? Not sure whitegloveliars BraveNewWorld

I just left fbook.

Jack Dorsey's emotional intelligence and maturity blows Zuckerberg out of the water. He is a man light years ahead of Zuckerberg and makes him look like a naive kid.

It's ON Twitter as well so what's the difference ? Twitter just labelled the tweet that's all

We prefer unbiased twitter ! Mr zuckerberg

Who is on facebook nowadays !? Noone is nowadays ! I cancelledmy accounta long time ago !

This guy sounds like a nazi?

“Former neo-nazi and future war criminal Mark Z. was very angry about Facebook post from realDonaldTrump, but decided to look the other way.” facebook

Mark, Mark, Mark you are an accomplice aiding & abetting Trump! Take a stand!! Don’t back down!! Block the Orange Clown!!

Coward! FactCheckTrump

UN NATO FACT:There’s a political & business benefit to the loyalists of Trump/the coalition of Civilized Nations.I.e.Zuckerburg,Musk.Then they use these loyalists to criminally attack the individuals/entities that aren’t loyalists. Ie. Me(decades),Comey,McCabe,McCain,etc.-API🌅

OduorNguka Lol wut? Let's see his blood screen . Lmfmo

Why?

Idiot

Did Zuckerberg had a visceral reaction when he saw Kathy Griffin holding President Trump’s bloody head? Give me a break. Zackerberg

Had a visceral negative reaction to Zuckerberg’s haircut

Facebook is a cesspool of misinformation and Mark is an enabler..

This is the worst kind of cowardice.

Yeah Zuckerberg is real courageous

hblodget how about a visceral F. U Zuckerberg.

SusaMorgan How about a 'Real-Facebook' or clone for our side and Facebook for the crazed red hats. I will get (most, not all, ugh) of my family and friends to switch. It's the saved memories on FB that is hard to retrieve...

DeleteFacebook

He is so disgusting. This is promoting violence.

El es más de amañar elecciones....vender datos...domesticar vanidosamente a la sociedad...

There’s nothing that should alarm anyone when trump calls for the use of military to bring order. We should have such a reaction when we see what’s going on now where people are destroying public property, stealing, hurting people, etc.,...

He’s a robot designed to make money. It is his sole purpose on this planet.

techinsider For those who think Zuckerberg / facebook is nefarious, vote with your mouse & close your account.

That's not what Trump wrote. He wrote 'When the looting starts, the shooting starts.' He means when protestors/rioters start looting, protestors/rioters start shooting. And that is completely logical. I can't stand this website's manipulation and bias.

Yucky mind! 🤮 It’s all about collecting data and money. No humanity.

techinsider Somebody please tell Zuckerberg I keep reporting pages and posts with sex content involving children and his social network keeps telling it's not relevant for them.

I predict Trump will say something that will make zukeberg turn into a chameleon....

45’s threats don’t violate community guidelines but me selling my hand-made reusable masks does? What universe is this?

The Spineless weed Zuckerberg shamed into making a critical comment but still not got guts enough to remove it and stand in solidarity with Twitter.

🙄 such moral high ground.

Facebook enables hate speech to make a profit. Somebody tell Mark it isn't micro dosing when he takes two tabs. You could drive a school bus thru this guys pupils most days

So Facebook promotes a leader using their platform to promote violence against minorities? Wow. Just wow.

BOYCOTT FACEBOOK 🙄

Actually...I maybe agree with his stance on this? Let’s not censor Trump right now. This is peak Trump fury, let him show us all who he is

I have a 'visceral negative reaction' every time I see Mark Zuckerberg's face.

How much money is he making from this round of election interference?

Fuck Facebook

Is he indicating the size of his negative reaction? or the size of something else?

lexnfx I’d expect nothing less from a guy with billions of dollars and that haircut.

He only cares about money.

Because Trump posts and extremism and toxic political division keep eyeballs on his site which makes this soulless ghoul obscene amounts of money.

And that is why I permanently deleted my .Facebook account today.

Should we thank him ?

It’s not his fault though. Zuck was tragically neutered in Washington D.C. Sad.

Is he showing the size of everyone else's wealth compared to his.

What happened to his hair?

Misinformation and inciting violence is Facebook’s business model. He can’t monetize it if he removes it.

DeleteFacebook

Zuckerberg, is single handily saving America in a world that is increasingly closing itself onto itself, with the help from the CCP thugs

just goes to show how truly ignorant and oblivious to history he is.

techinsider The man doesn't have a death wish for his business

Zuckerberg is complicit
