When the president calls a mega corporation's action "shamefull" is this some kind of regulation? Is this some kind of penalty?

It's just virtue signaling. What he actually meant to do is send weapons to Israel but he got confused.
Hey non-voting lefties! Join us in appreciating the last time you'll see a President say something that's not only factually correct, but is in line with your personal beliefs!
Ahhhh. Nice, isn't it?
I'm with ya, but at this point it doesn't really matter, and he's still doing ICC shenanigans. Fuckem both i'm not american (and i vote in my elections).

Contact your elected officials and ask why they don't stop disinformation on social media.
Better yet, spread horrid disinformation about your elected officials on social media.
it's great to see biden's doing pretty much all of the absolutely fucking nothing that i expected, before he politely and peacefully hands us all over to fascism.
get fucked joe. the ineffectual finger-wagging and sternly worded bullshit response to the country collapsing around you is a big reason people can't stand democrats
edit: LOL that's a perfect analogy-- biden's response to everything = downvotes/mad face emoji 😡
He turned out to the the POS I expected. A leopard cant change its spots
Yeah he should make them censor stories line his son's laptop story, that will save us from fascism!
You mean the story where Rudy Guiliani was duplicating, disseminating, and transporting across state lines, child pornography, and doing so knowingly for weeks before considering turning it over to law enforcement.
Which he never turned over?

Okay! Bye!
Tiktok gets banned for showing pro-Palestine content. Facebook gets an aww shucks for spreading endless misinformation
TikTok gets banned for being Chinese Spyware.
Facebook gets an aww shucks for being American Spyware.
Yeah, since when is TikTok getting banned for showing pro-Palestine content? The only thing I've ever read or heard about it is the US government being scared of Chinese spying.
Not saying that's a good excuse either. I just think your statement is incorrect.
Also sorta funny and ironic you're spreading misinformation while complaining about misinformation.
"You have a social media ecosystem environment in which context, history, facts get lost, and the emotion — the impact of images — dominates," Blinken said.
Romney replied, "Some wonder why there was such overwhelming support for us to shut down potentially TikTok or other entities of that nature. If you look at the postings on TikTok and the number of mentions of Palestinians, relative to other social media sites — it's overwhelmingly so among TikTok broadcasts."
Thanks for providing articles!

Really shameful you keep giving weapons to a genocide country but here we are.
It is okay, now with Meta's hands off approach we will finally be able to criticize Israel.....oh wait apparently that is not what they meant.
Don't you worry your lefty little head about that! Donald Trump is totally going to make you wish you had done the one measly little thing you could have the one time it mattered!
But sure, get some good ol' Genocide Joe-ing in while you can. Tell us all about it!
a genocide country
Real eloquent stuff.
Biden SLAMS Meta!
Biden can SLAM his bullshit back up his ass
Do something about it or shut up, Joe.
Why not smash through insanely overpowered executive orders if only to clog up the Supreme Court?
Why don't they try? Ever? Anything?
Can't govern by shaming.
Biden should be impeached and in jail himself for numerous violations related to shipping weappons to genociders. But we arent a country of laws anymore, so I guess geriatric virtue signalling via finger wagging is fine. Whats it even matter anymore.
388-58 was the vote on sending the last aid package in Congress. Those are the same people who vote to impeach the president. They write the checks for it as well. And have been a Majority Republican house since before Biden got in. Not that it would have changed much with how the Democrats have been voting in terms of Israel.
Point being, why would Congress vote to impeach someone doing what they wanted?
True. The most effective means of governing is by executive orders, issued weeks before leaving office, that can be immediately overturned by the incoming president.
You are the one that control what they are allowed to do.
Lmao Dems are beyond useless.
Kill the Democratic party, they have no chance of doing the right thing
Biden criticized Meta, the company known for imprisoning children to mine elements for their AI batteries, because they dropped fact checking?
I mean American enslaves children and murders countless so get of your high horse Americans
Hey, we allow American children to work in mines, they love it! We've also found this neat method at our borders that if you separate families they get really desperate and stressed out. To the point they might just turn around and leave if we ever let them out of our camps.
Fact checking affects Democrat election results. Not all that other silly stuff.
Rich and powerful hate facts. Dumb sheep easier to control :)
I call biden really shameful. You obviously have the respect of your peers but all you can do is wag your finger like an impotent bitch boy.
And what did you do about this bullshit when you were president, cunt

"contrary to American justice."
Ok. What laws were broken?
It looks like politics is now a wholly owned subsidiary of lefty punk-ass idiots. Well, we'll enjoy their hot takes on their new god emperor with no clothes for four exciting vomitous years.
Thanks lefties! Enjoy your self righteousness.
For anyone relatively new to lemmy, "lefty" is apparently different from "liberal" by an incredibly large amount, although they'll need to explain it because I don't know.
What does this mean?
It means they, for some inexplicable reason, thought the pre-election "shut up about Biden" hivemind would survive perpetually.

because I don’t know
It takes great strength for someone to admit their limitations, and that I can respect.
Those are definitley English words...
Not all leftists are idiots. I was here every day prior to the election, telling those morons to shut the fuck up.

Facebook is contrary to American justice?
First off: I think not. lol It's MO is exactly the same. Rich people get to die anything they want and the poors can suck it.
Secondly: what the hell does he think Facebook is, the right to assemble, a public space?
Please don't use the lie machine for lying, it's just supposed to sell crap, not bull crap?
