Sadly, there was just no way FB could have seen this coming after the president's *months long* delegitimization campaign: “the report calls delegitimization a “new territory” in which “few policies or knowledge existed” prior to election night.” https://twitter.com/...

An internal doc at Facebook, co-written by Chris Cox, aims to equip employees with rebuttals to the perception that the company's products fuel polarization

In a Thursday presentation, Facebook executives told employees the company isn't to blame for social division in the country. Tweets: @rmac18 , @jtemple , @rmac18 , @buzzfeednews ,...

This panelist is correct. Polarization is complex. A lot of polarization is caused by movements for justice, racial and otherwise. It is not clear why Facebook should normatively be solving for polarization, and racial injustice is historically FAR more destabilizing to democracy https://twitter.com/...

This is spot on. The pursuit of racial justice will inherently cause polarization, because political actors will capitalize on white identity politics and backlash. https://twitter.com/...

There really is so much great analysis in the Facebook civil rights audit - most important to my eyes are the sections on voter suppression, which really get at the heart of the problem.
