We do have to practice tolerance of certain things, but genocide is not one of em. I'm sorry it makes you uncomfortable to know that you're using the same platform that was used by state-supported mass murderers and the executives knew about it and took the money, but allowing others to tend to their own discomfort is the deepest of compliments.

What platform are you talking about? You're borderline incoherent here.

If you are not aware of certain facts in certain parts of the world, it certainly would sound that way.

You're not naming the platform that you have a problem with and now you're just rambling. Trolling isn't taken lightly here ...

Sigh.

We're discussing WhatsApp in this post. Read the subject line.

I mentioned war crimes, and the [word] Rohingya, and that is enough for any curious mind to google and learn what I am talking about.

But since you're determined to do a thorough demonstration of willful incuriosity, what I am talking about is, Facebook, owned by Meta, which owns WhatsApp, was used as a platform to foment and execute a genocide in the country of Mynanmar, against the Rohingya muslim minority. Meta executives knew about it and did nothing, cause hey, brown people in that part of the world, who cares.

Enjoy talking to your grandpa or whatever.

For every bad thing that's been done using WhatsApp I could name 10 great things done using the platform. No one is going to use your shitty alternative app dude.

Also it's spelled Myanmar. You can't even spell the name right of the country that you're all upset about. Were you personally affected by what happened there? I bet you just like to cherry-pick tragedies and use them to virtue signal your depressed world view on Hacker News.

I see we've found the Meta employee.
