"the platform promoted violent conspiracy theories and gave safe harbor to militia groups" like the “Kenosha Guard”, which issued a “call to arms” on Facebook which, despite two people reporting it, remained online.

The level of employee pushback at Facebook is unprecedented...
Facebook did remove over 790 groups, 100 pages, and 1,500 ads tied to QAnon... as it evolves from misinformation to the promotion of violence... but works reporting seeing dozens of active Q groups still there. “Our enforcement makes no sense... [Zuck] seems truly incapable of taking personal responsibility"
