Oh so they want to spread truth about Israeli war crimes?

The commission asked Meta and TikTok to explain the measures they have taken to reduce the risk of spreading and amplifying terrorist and violent content, hate speech and disinformation.

No, it seems they want to pay service to Israeli war crimes...

From the river to the sea.

I once got a comment on lemmy world removed for "disinformation" because I said the Azov Battalion's logo was based on a nazi symbol. Like they don't give a shit about the truth they just want it as an excuse to push whatever hegemonic bullshit the american empire is on at the time.

EDIT: Proof

It is a Wolfsangel not a „literal swastika“, as you wrote. That only makes it a little better, though. Both symbols are clearly understood in this context as symbols of nazism today.

The only thing that makes it "a little better" (for the Nazis that is) is that it's not widely recognized as a Nazi symbol by the general public just yet. Allowing them to essentially hide in plain sight :))))

If anything that sucks more because it lacks the explicitly that a standard swastika has.
