The social media company is also temporarily allowing some posts that call for death to Russian President Vladimir Putin or Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in countries including Russia, Ukraine and Poland, according to a series of internal emails to its content moderators.

These calls for the leaders' deaths will be allowed unless they contain other targets or have two indicators of credibility, such as the location or method, one email said, in a recent change to the company's rules on violence and incitement.

The emails said calls for violence against Russians are allowed when the post is clearly talking about the invasion of Ukraine. They said the calls for violence against Russian soldiers were allowed because this was being used as a proxy for the Russian military, and said it would not apply to prisoners of war.

Meta did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The temporary policy changes apply to Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Russia and Ukraine.

yeah im sure this is a great idea which definitely wont have any knock on effects or change the understanding of how the platform works and moderates content or bias

I've gotten 2 separate 3-day mutes for calling people who antagonized me "bitches" on fb, but this is allowed

Whatever became of that story of the fb/Meta community manager who got caught trying to f*** that 13yo boy?

Probably the same as when all other powerful people got caught

The whistle-blower committed suicide by stabbing himself 8x, slitting his wrists and shooting himself in the back of the head twice while gagged? Dude must've had some demons

it's always either that or nothing happens ever and everyone "forgets" it occurred

This still trips me out to this day. Especially since we just begged the "non president" for some discount oil.

Tools of national security

Facebook lied to you

Facebook was too lenient in allowing Russians to post misinformation so we should be more lenient in allowing people to fedpost about Russians in a fashion it might be grounds for a ban for me to even repeat

Facebook not enforcing rules like these played a massive role in two genocides. No surprise they don’t give a f***.
