Some Facebook employees have tweeted strong disagreements with CEO Mark Zuckerberg's decision not to take any action on a series of President Trump's posts last week, including an apparent threat that 'looting' would lead to 'shooting.'
In a rare example of public dissent, some Facebook employees are taking to Twitter to express strong disagreements with CEO Mark Zuckerberg's decision not to take any action on a series of controversial posts last week from President Donald Trump, including an apparent threat that"looting" would lead to"shooting."
Jason Stirman, a design manager at Facebook, said he disagreed with Zuckerberg's decision to do"nothing" about Trump's recent posts."I'm not alone inside of FB. There isn't a neutral position on racism," he wrote in a tweet on Saturday.
— Stirman May 30, 2020 "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," Zuckerberg wrote in a Facebook post on Friday."But I'm responsible for reacting not just in my personal capacity but as the leader of an institution committed to free expression.
