Once is not customary, the Meta Group that owns Facebook, Twitter and Instagram will make public an incredible decision: allow calls for violence against Russians, soldiers at the front in Ukraine and better calls for the murders of Vladimir Putin and the President of Belarus. The world is devastated by this iniquitous decision, while Russians are prevented from expressing themselves on so-called social networks.
Individuals who want to make calls for violence and murder of Russians and Russian soldiers in the context of the invasion of Ukraine, will be welcome on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. This is the surprising decision that the Meta group, owned by Mark Zukerberg, is about to take. Indeed, according to internal emails seen by Reuters on Thursday, this will be allowed. But only as part of a temporary change to the group's hate speech policy. Calls for the murder of Putin and Lukashenko will be allowed.
According to Reuters, which published the information exclusively on March 10, 2022, still secret emails demonstrate that Meta would even allow praise for the right-wing Azov battalion. This is normally forbidden, as this military group openly advocates Nazi leanings. What Vladimir Putin keeps denouncing. It is because of this group that he says he wants to denazify Ukraine.
This serious case will provoke reactions. Reuters was able to have a brief reaction, embarrassed to the surrounds of the spokesman of the meta group. Meta spokesman Joe Osborne had previously said that the company "is for the time being making a narrow exception for praise of the Azov Regiment strictly in the context of defending Ukraine or in its role in the Ukrainian National Guard."
