    I think the big reason they are allowing it is because they got to cut the entire cost of having moderation with an external vendor. Not because they have an agenda or anything. Its pure dollars.

      Nah it’s clearly ideological when you look at the details of their new moderation policies. They now allow you to call people crazy, but only if it’s because they’re LGBT.

        I don’t think so. Zuck never cared about people, he’s cut-throat, egotistical and money/power focussed. He wouldn’t take the time for thinking about insulting the little people (non-millionaires). He’s done it to encourage more users to use the platform and create disputes/content which is cold hard cash to him. Remember when they experimented with users by showing them content that would trigger them to make them interact?
