What a joke them calling it E2EE, but they have the private keys?

The parent commenter lied (most likely due to them having no clue wtf they are talking about, what a surprise on HN).
I don't think they claim that Facebook messages are end to end encrypted. They say WhatsApp are but not ones sent via Facebook.
But aren't they sending the message to Facebook first before sending it end-to-end encrypted? To make sure it isn't anything harmful /s

Or was that feature scrapped or did I misremember?

No, you 100% don't understand what you are talking about.
I absolutely understand what I am talking about.

I only don't remember exactly.
