It's quite remarkable how quickly the tides are turning. Even 12 months ago I would have never expected to hear things like these from Zuckerberg's mouth:
> Zuckerberg said Meta was focused on "restoring free expression"
> The 40-year-old tycoon said that "recent elections feel like a cultural tipping point toward, once again, prioritizing speech."
> He added that Meta platforms would "simplify" their content policies "and get rid of a bunch of restrictions on topics like immigration and gender that are just out of touch with mainstream discourse."
> Meta will also relocate its trust and safety and content moderation teams from California, to Texas. Zuckerberg suggested the southern state is a place where "there is less concern about the bias of our teams."
It was to be expected, that business would be the first to drop identity politics, after being the last to hop on the bandwagon. They have the most to lose. Now let's see if the institutions that are paid by taxes will follow, or if they have to be forced to through budget cuts and legislation.
