Calling women ‘household objects’ now permitted on Facebook after Meta updated its guidelines

New York
CNN
—
Meta on Tuesday announced sweeping changes to how it moderates content that will roll out in the coming months, including doing away with professional fact checking. But the company also quietly updated its hateful conduct policy, adding new types of content users can post on the platform, effective immediately.

Users are now allowed to, for example, refer to “women as household objects or property” or “transgender or non-binary people as ‘it,’” according to a section of the policy prohibiting such speech that was crossed out. A new section of the policy notes Meta will allow “allegations of mental illness or abnormality when based on gender or sexual orientation, given political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality.”

Previously, such comments would have been subject to removal under the policy. The changes to Meta’s hateful conduct policy were first reported by Wired.

Meta had hinted in its announcement about its content moderation policy changes Tuesday morning that it would get rid of restrictions on certain topics, such as immigration and gender identity. But the updated policy shows just how quickly Meta is moving to enact CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s vision for “free expression.”

1. Zuck following the lead of Eloon

Thinks "free speech" means "hateful speech".

[Henry203]

2. This creep had the nerve

to rate women's looks. What a jerk.

[Maru Kitteh]

3. I had forgotten about that. Makes sense in that context. Zuck is incel zero.

[Unladen Swallow]

44. He's married to a woman and has kids, yes?

[Trueblue1968]

18. And this creep is ugggggggggly !!!!

[littlemissmartypants]

43. Admitted to...

Marrying the first woman to give him a BJ, too.

[Maru Kitteh]

57. He actually does look like a Star Trek Android. Apoligies to Mr. Spiner and

the entire Trek Universe, but yeah.

[Trueblue1968]

60. Hideous. When i was young and dating ... I would not have given him the time of day. Not attractive at all.

Looks like a robot in a sci fi movie. No affect, no personality.

[Cha]

4. What will men be called who do that?

Fuck Off Cave Dwellers?

[Iris]

5. Dicks. And Crackers

Apparently "cracker" was deemed hate speech by FB about 5 years ago

[CousinIT]

6. Sounds like he promised SHitler he would do this in order to remain in his good graces.

Tyrant kings gonna tyrant.

[Quiet Em]

7. This is infuriating.

Aholes.

[Tickle]

8. No more fact checking as it is too biased, so says zuckerberg NY

[whathehell]

40. Sure, because there are no "facts" anymore, right?

just whatever the uber- wealthy TELL you are facts, I guess.

[whathehell]

58. That sounds about as real as "alternative facts"

Facts just ARE...How they might be "biased" is anyone's guess.

[Maru Kitteh]

11. I would very much like to see something like that as well! Bluesky needs a sister company.

One that can take the place of Facebook, for sane people.

[meow2u3]

54. Tribel is a small, left-leaning platform similar to Facebook

The mods on Tribel do their best to nuke MAGAts and other troublemakers. Tribel just has the growing pains of crypto scam bots, porn bots (which Musk's minions must be programming to intrude there), and zero post scammers.

It's largely friendly there with few right-wing problems there.

[recovering_democrat]

10. Meta consistently "irritates females"

"just because" I got tired of all the boob pictures almost every time I open my Facebook page. A number of others replied to me to ignore it. I got several comments some positive, some negative. Oh well. What interests me is that after these "comments" the boob pictures have increased significantly.

[Ritabert]

12. I gave up Facebook last year

...due to annoying posters.

[2naSalit]

13. Time to starve the beast...

Before it eats you.

[Maru Kitteh]

19. I haven't posted there for almost 5 years now.

It became painful after losing my mom and a couple of friends, and I just kind of quit.

[Clouds Passing]

14. Fuck Fuckerberg

[Susan Calvin]

15. My God, I thought this was going to be the Onion. nt

[Skittles]

50. considering it is FB

it might as well be

[rampartd]

16. we have shot way past the handmaids tale and into soylent green

where women are "furniture" until they ultimately become "food"

would it maybe have been possible for zuckerberg to do this without announcing it? when facebook opened up the 57 0r however many genders maga pronounced that as democrat policy.

[Trueblue1968]

17. Facebook will now allow men to be called "garbage haulers " and "sweaty pigs" with new rules change

What is good for the goose is good for the gander ....

........ Take out the garbage will you fella ????

........ Time to mow the lawn, get to it.

[Rebl2]

20. Why is

anybody still on facebook

[Joinfortmill]

25. I write books. There are book publishing and author pages on FB. The whole thing just sucks.

Gonna need to delete those pages once the book award I'm entered into is final.

[Dem2theMax]

21. Never had a Facebook account.

Friends keep trying to get me to join. Saving this article to show them why I never will.

[spooky3]

28. I haven't, either. I've missed out on some good things but

Glad to have missed out on a lot of the bad, such as this new policy.

[Dem2theMax]

33. I agree. I've missed out on tons of family stuff.

But I have this moral line that I won't cross.
And Zuckerberg has always been on the other side of that line.

[spooky3]

46. Agree nt

[Joinfortmill]

22. Unf*cking Believable.

[allegorical oracle]

23. Was banned from FB about six yrs ago. Am still banned. Had just signed up to vote for a

friend's butterfly photo in a contest. The next time I went on FB, I couldn't log in and was told I'd somehow broken community rules.

Don't mind being objectified. Always wanted to be a red 1963 Cadillac convertible.

[Ilsa]

24. Sure, just continue the plan for diminishing

women and their human rights.

[DBoon]

26. So what are we now allowed to call Zuckerberg?

can I refer to hims as a non-human lifeform and not get zapped?

[bucolic_frolic]

27. Is there an alternative to Facebook? Realistically.

Because everything is there. with no alternatives.

[Scrivener7]

32. I never used it. I live a full life.

[no_hypocrisy]

29. Oh goody! Does that mean Meta will allow me to refer to men

as "societal eunuchs?"

[Scrivener7]

30. Why would intelligent people continue to subject themselves to that, or to

support this garbage with their clicks and attention?

It's beyond me.

[GoreWon2000]

31. Are Zuckerberg's 2 daughters now "property" and "household objects"?

I wonder if Zuckerberg has thought about that? I'm proud to say that I've never been on Facebook and I'll never be on Facebook.

[PortTack]

34. Tell me again why anyone uses Fb or twitter? Especially now when we have reasonable alternatives

[Mblaze]

35. Zuckerberg has finally realized that

there are a whole lot more assholes in America than he thought there were and he feels the need to join them since the leader of the 'holes is the President.

[dchill]

39. AND he doesn't have enough money yet.

You gotta sympathize! Poor guy...

[hadEnuf]

36. That means we can call them whatever we want back, right?

n/t

[dchill]

37. Keeping up with the Musks.

Just gotta do it.

[tazcat]

38. Got rid of that loose end...

been off FB since '16 - the rubles thing Now just took 20 min screwing round & its GONE FCK those bastards! Zuck stole the idea anyway they ALL are thieves!

[IronLionZion]

41. How about minorities next? Who doesn't love the honor of being someone else's property?

[COL Mustard]

42. Is this serious?

Or is it from "The Onion"? If it's real, JFC!!!

[Maru Kitteh]

48. It's real. It's very real. nt

[Luciferous]

45. Yet another reason to stay off FB

[Skittles]

51. careful

you might prompt yet another whiny thread about "telling others what to do"

[kimbutgar]

47. I so want to quit Facebook but my mother in law loves to se family posts.

I have set my posting to friends only but I am so angry with Facebook and Amazon.

I did not buy any Xmas presents but my hubby won’t let me quit prime video because he likes programs and movies!

But I am not buying from Amazon, and any other company that I know of that kissed the ring of the 🍑💩🫏 !

[Kid Berwyn]

49. 1984 meets Dixie

Brazil meets Greenland.

[Basso8vb]

52. Zuck the Cuck can suck a Buck.

[meow2u3]

53. Two can play that game, Zuck!

Let's refer to right-wing men as wild animals that escaped from the zoo. See how males like that!

[bdamomma]

55. Billionaires

and Multi Millionaires are the newest to the swamp dwellers.

[Unladen Swallow]

56. Zuck is a fair weather friend

He's change his stripes again in four years.

[Stardust Mirror]

59. What's the problem calling women property/household goods?

It's in the Bible, right? Even one of the Ten Commandments, y'know, principles upon which our country was founded!

/insert sarcasm thingy here/

[Unladen Swallow]

61. I've never used FB

and have always thought Zuckerberg was kinda creepy, but now we are supposed to hate him?
