Summary

Meta’s recent shift to right-leaning policies, including ending fact-checking in the U.S., scaling back content moderation, and allowing anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, has sparked boycotts and a user exodus.

The company also disbanded its diversity, equity, and inclusion team, drawing criticism.

Prominent users like director Cord Jefferson and nonprofits like Equal Access Public Media have left or reduced activity on Meta platforms.

Many are migrating to alternatives such as Bluesky, Amigahood, and Tumblr, while some remain trapped due to Meta’s dominance in communication and business.

    It’s ironic how in the US the political side that aligns themselves more closely with radical Christian beliefs is so against that view

    This is the famous ‘virtue signaling’ they love to accuse their perceived enemies of. They have discovered they have carte blanche to be the most vile, heinous pieces of shit as long as they proclaim that “they love Jesus”. We saw how Trump was cast as a savior while holding someone’s bible upside down in front of a church that didn’t want him there. Millions of Americans made Trump, Jesus, and guns into their political platform. The Kool-Aid appears to have replaced the blood of Christ, lol

      “we love you Jesus, whether you want it or not. Your body my choice. Now shut up and get back on that cross”
