Nu reagerar anställda inom Facebook mot företagets hantering av inlägg signerade Donald Trump. När Twitter lade på en varning att inlägget glorierar våld så har Facebook inte gjort någonting.
Enligt brittiska BBC så skämdes flera anställda över hur det egna bolaget valde att inte ingripa, inte sätta på någon varningsetikett på Trumps inlägg på Facebook.
Mr Trump took to Facebook to repeat a tweet about the widespread protests in Minneapolis, following the death of George Floyd in police custody.
Twitter had placed a warning over the content, which it said “glorified violence”, but Facebook said it did not violate its company policy.
Some staff said they were ‘ashamed’.
The president said he would “send in the National Guard”, and warned that “when the looting starts, the shooting starts.”
The post remains untouched on Facebook after founder Mark Zuckerberg said it did not violate the company’s policy around incitement of violence.
Interna protester
Även The Verge rapporterar om de interna protesterna inom Facebook där interna PM har läckt ut till medierna.
In response to an internal post explaining the company’s rationale, some employees criticized the company’s neutral posture.
“I have to say I am finding the contortions we have to go through incredibly hard to stomach,” one employee wrote in a comment about the shooting post. “All this points to a very high risk of a violent escalation and civil unrest in November and if we fail the test case here, history will not judge us kindly.”
