I do not see how being on a platform literally chasing away people with hate, sexism and outright CSAM is somehow making a wrong decision about audiences to attract...can you drop your political bias red colored shades and address this?


You could literally be describing any modern day social network with those slurs.


How many other social network sites have their CEO posting and promoting white supremacist rhetoric?


It would be illegal to post such rhetoric, and I can't name a single social network CEO who's been investigated and found guilty of posting such rhetoric. Perhaps I missed a court case somewhere?


Wait, you think it's illegal to post something racist online? That is absolutely not the case in the US, and I have no idea why you'd think it was. It's also pretty confusing why you think simple descriptors are "slurs".

It only takes one quick google search to show that he helps promote white supremacist rhetoric:

Don't worry, there's more.


The intentional ellision of the difference between "happened" and "happened, and then a very specific legal process also happened" is disingenuous.

If you have to resort to such tactics to make your arguments, consider rethinking your positions instead.
