Zuckerberg Shuts Down Facebook Fact Checking Program, Admits It Was ‘Biased’ and ‘Censored Free Speech’


Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has finally admitted that Facebook and Instagram have relied on “biased” fact-checkers, most of whom were based in California and engaged in censorship and suppression of free speech across the social media platforms.

Facebook, long criticized for its severe censorship practices under pressure from the Biden administration and Deep State, is now in the process of making sweeping changes.

According to Zuckerberg, the platform will discontinue its biased fact-checking program, replacing it with a Community Notes system aimed at fostering a more personalized approach to political content.

“We’re going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms,” Zuckerberg announced Tuesday. “More specifically, here’s what we’re going to do. First, we’re going to get rid of fact checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X, starting in the U.S.”

Users on X immediately cheered Zuckerberg for changing his company’s direction away from totalitarian censorship on behalf of the government and towards free speech.

“The future of free speech online is looking better than it has in a long time,” Charlie Kirk posted. “Time will tell how successful Zuckerberg will be in implementing some of these changes, but these are bold steps in the right direction and we should hope for their success.”

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) posted: “@Meta finally admits to censoring speech…what a great birthday present to wake up to and a huge win for free speech.”

X account DC Draino said Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter was a catalyst in restoring free speech.
