BRASILIA, Brazil — Brazil on Friday gave social media giant Meta 72 hours to explain its fact-checking policy for the country, and how it plans to protect fundamental rights on its
It also helps that unlike the R and the C in BRICS, they aren’t imperialists threatening and/or invading their neighbours. Brazil is a good world citizen.
The old system of using fact-checking agencies was biased, and the content they deemed false had its reach negatively impacted. They were literally the arbiters of truth, and their actions silenced their political opponents’ voices. The new system of Community Notes is superior because it requires approval from people with diverse political alignments to show a fact-check to everyone.
It’s so disappointing. India has a massive tech service industry and could’ve been a force for good, but the government loves their censorship and authoritarianism too much.
because its not a country we’ve flagged as “Evil Enemy Run By Inhuman Savages”.
Unless the subject is Amazon deforestation, in which case we have to stop these inhuman savages from destroying this global patrimony (mine). Please don’t ask who’s buying the cattle and soy being grown there or running the mining companies or where I got all this fertile land.
Reminds me of people who said Amazon deforestation warranted a “military intervention.” Hey, be funny if trumpet added another country to his want-to-invade list, wouldn’t it? Yet folks still feel bothered when I say people in rich countries don’t really care all that much about poorer ones.
All the BRICS have. Brazil just stands out, because its not a country we’ve flagged as “Evil Enemy Run By Inhuman Savages”.

Uhhh, did you forget that Brazil was being run by a fascist war criminal just a short while ago?
So were lots of countries. At least they learned from their mistake, unlike the US.
If Brazil had learned from it’s mistake it WOULDN’T HAVE ALLOWED A FASCIST INTO POWER, genius.
I meant it in the “fool me once” sense. Americans went for a second helping at the trough of fascism.
The US has been pro-fascist long, long before Mussolini gave it a name.
No wonder with all these off-duty cops I keep hearing about.
As long as it keeps censoring its citizens, everthing fine! 🙄
Eh?
Fact checking is censorship apparently.

Because remember you need a Nazi and a tankie to agree with facts in order for it to be the real truth.
Sometimes reality doesn’t align with political views. Doesn’t mean it’s not facts
I thought you just believed the opposite of whatever your political adversaries believed, because they were always lying
So you’re set to automatically complain unless the fact-check aligns perfectly with your worldview?
Projecting much?
Kind weird to think that’s what’s happening tbh
I think you might be confused. They were talking about a country other than the US. 😂
Not all, India is in BRICS and they are part of the problem in the tech world.

The limited view I have into the CEO culture there seems even more toxic than America’s.

Idk which video was, but Brazil tremendously improved on the Amazon deforestation issue. https://youtu.be/6gI-wKbKfeI
Yes, a lot of things changed for the better once they got rid of Bolsonaro
