This is damning. washingtonpost.com/technology/202… 
As is this: Political leaders can move public opinion. Some politicians use that for good. Some use it for evil. And some say "well, I would love to do X, but my polling says I can't." That third group is unfit to lead. But the 2nd group is culpable.
That said, a politician yelling hatred into the void is one thing. A politician yelling hatred into an FB algorithm that sees someone who engages with it and says "I see you like Mo Brooks. Might I introduce you to the Proud Boys?" is something else entirely.
This is disgusting.
Read that prior paragraph and then watch my 2019 exchange with Zuckerberg when he refuses to affirmatively say they would take down hate speech if it came from a member of the American Nazi Party who was the @GOP nominee for congress in IL-03. facebook.com/watch/?v=40628…
(It should be noted that the @GOP did, in fact nominate a member of the American Nazi Party to be their nominee that year.)
Anyway, read the whole article. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
