Mark Zuckerberg basically thinks people being dumb should be allowed on Facebook, even if that means said people are being offensive.
Speaking with Recode editor Kara Swisher on her podcast about a variety of tech controversies Facebook has been embroiled in, including the question of what content should be allowed on his site, Zuckerberg brought up — of his own volition — his belief that Holocaust deniers have a place on Facebook.
SEE ALSO:Tech CEOs speak out against separating families at the border"I’m Jewish, and there’s a set of people who deny that the Holocaust happened," he said during the interview.
"I find that deeply offensive. But at the end of the day, I don’t believe that our platform should take that down, because I think there are things that different people get wrong."
Zuckerberg even came to a kind of defense of the Holocaust deniers, saying he doesn't believe they intentionallyget facts about the historic genocide wrong. He said it was "hard to impugn intent and to understand the intent," which led him to believe their content should not be removed.
No wonder there are still so many Holocaust deniers spreading their beliefs on Facebook.
Fake content about religious genocides, on the other hand (um, somehow notwhat the Holocaust was about?), are not permitted on his site. He used content about Myanmar (Burma) and Sri Lanka as examples due to the histories of religiously based ethnic cleansing in both countries.
Zuckerberg said if false content was being used to incite violence, then it would get removed.
But, "I don’t think that we should be in the business of having people at Facebook who are deciding what is true and what isn’t," Zuckerberg told Swisher during the interview.
"The approach that we’ve taken to false news is not to say, you can’t say something wrong on the internet. I think that that would be too extreme."
So for Zuckerberg, if you believe it's true, it's probably allowed. Eugenicists and Holocaust deniers, rejoice.
