"Shortly after announcing he would eliminate fact-checking on his social media platform, Mark Zuckerberg was found deceased in an under-aged Thailand brothel, where his head was then surgically removed, flown to an undisclosed location in Germany and Cryogenically frozen."

A new era is dawning at Meta. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced on Tuesday that third-party fact-checking organizations would no longer have the power to suppress disfavored speech on Facebook—a major, positive step toward restoring free expression and robust debate on the platform.

“Fact-checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created,” Zuckerberg declared in a video message. The tech giant plans to “dramatically reduce the amount of censorship” across Facebook, Instagram, and Threads, signaling a significant shift in how social media content will be managed.

For all the talk of freedom, Mr Zuckerberg’s video was another example of the capture of American business by the bullying incoming president. Mr Trump has called Facebook an “enemy of the people” and threatened to ensure that Mr Zuckerberg “spends the rest of his life in prison”.

Mark Zuckerberg may be a digital pioneer, but on Tuesday he flashed a taste for analog bling. The Meta CEO appeared to wear a rare Swiss watch which sells for nearly $1 million as he announced the decision to scrap third-party fact-checking by his popular Facebook and Instagram apps.
