Not only conversatives. Liberals are also upset about vaccines misinformation, election fraud, etc. My point is that you have to 'train' the AI models somehow. FB introduces its own 'biases' on those models. They admitted this 'mistake' only because it affected a Canadian MP, otherwise I don't think they would have this for you or I. Their 'discrimation' policies are too broad for an automated system. FB exhorts too much power over information.

I think the point they’re highlighting is that this is a “free market success story”. The private company did what it wanted (automated moderation), and ultimately the removed post got reinstated anyways.

Meaning it’s hypocritical of conservatives to be offended by this. Liberals are less for unregulated free markets, so it isn’t hypocritical of liberals to be for regulation or whatever to prevent private companies from doing this or that.

OP’s point was probably that liberals upset about free markets is expected, while conservatives upset about free markets is rather more ironic

[simplestats]

There's an important nuance in between though, such as defending freedom of speech while still objecting to what someone says.

It might be hypocrisy if the MP calls for a govt intervention (assuming he was some kind of free market advocate), but it was the poster here calling for breakup.

The “free market” we sipport really is competitio. Competition drives invention and progress. With FB, they have no direct competition and thus can control the free market of ideas.

That is the problem.

I this case the idea od wishing a merry christmas? Where does that end you think?
