Meta Is Allowing Political Ads That Claim the 2020 Election Was Stolen - Feddit

There have been dozens of lawsuits that have attempted to challenge the 2020 presidential election results but they were dismissed at the state and federal levels across the country. However, Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, will now be able to directly profit from political ads that promote fictitious claims about the legitimacy of the 2020 election because of the policy.

    It is a propaganda machine. X does it too. And I believe YouTube is allowing it too. (Check me on this one).

      I may be mistaken, but I personally think they do that for money and for money only. They don’t have political views and no principles.

        Oh, they have political views, just not the same as we think of them. They are, as you aptly summed up, about money. They want less taxes, less oversight, etc. Guess which party has been giving that to them? They couldn’t give two shits if the Middle East became the flash point for WWIII and could lead to global nuclear annihilation as long as next quarter’s profits are higher than last quarters. They’d happily run ads endorsing slavery if it would make them a buck. What they have is a lack morals and ethics because those things get in the way of the line constantly going up.
