Ironically this will give Facebook even more power if they concede to these demands, which I think will ultimately backfire. Censorship as the woke tool of corporations is one of the craziest things happening in a very crazy year.

I think it’s just guerrilla marketing. I got an email today from a standing desk vendor I met at a conference urging me to join them in celebrating Juneteenth.

And to buy a desk.

I wonder what the conversation rate is for these woke-facaded ads. Maybe companies are geniuses/amoral jerks and these things work.

I have noticed people assuming that available data are representative of the population and I wonder if companies are making these decisions based on thinking that tweets/online activity are uniform with all people.

I had a colleague who would say “any change is better than nothing” and then make changes after talking to a single person.

What do you mean by this?

Not OP, but probably the fact that being woke implies the use of censorship. On their face they seem mutually exclusive

How so? Facebook clearly benefits from the outrage clickbait model.
