‘It’s Total Chaos Internally at Meta Right Now’: Employees Protest Zuckerberg’s Anti LGBTQ Changes
‘It’s Total Chaos Internally at Meta Right Now’: Employees Protest Zuckerberg’s Anti LGBTQ Changes
Meta's decision to specifically allow users to call LGBTQ+ people "mentally ill" has sparked widespread backlash at the company.
You're viewing a single thread.
Meta was already enabling genocide in third world countries and countless other things but this is what caused chaos. Those employees have weird priorities, huh?
[edit] reworded slightly on the account of caused controversy
Not sure why you're being down voted, it's a fair point.
In fairness, do we know for certain what happened in Facebook back then? Maybe some employees did protest, maybe they're the same people protesting now, even. Or they quit. Thing is, LGBT issues make engaging articles. Third world suffering? Eh, it depends.
Yet, I agree with the overall point because this is the crux of the matter: on average, one of these simply matters more—one way or another, see transphobes cheering—for people of this subgroup. This is us.
The usual notes apply: good on them for protesting, big media isn't helping, fully ethical employment is like fully ethical consumption.
Not like they're a bunch of committed leftists working there.
Which is more likely to impact a Meta employee personally?
Ah yes, the "old news theory"...
-They've done it already, why call them out again? It's old news.
While they escalate and continue to go full-on hate for profit.
i was with you at first but upon rethinking i do think it’s fair to note that there was little to no internal uproar in meta over the myanmar and othe situations. of course there was uproar outside meta. when they said “weird priorities” they meant from meta employees specifically—not progressive or leftist voices in general.
hope me describing my train of thoughts helps :)
- They haven't done "it" because it's a different thing
- OP did not say not to call it out again, simply ask us to consider why this thing caused more chaos than others
