Meta Platforms, Inc. is a Statesian imperialist surveillance and propaganda network distributed across almost all countries worldwide. Its primary product is Facebook, a bourgeois social media service which acts serves as censor and propagandist for imperialist NATO powers, through NATO's Atlantic Council think tank.[1][2] It was established in 2004, by Mark Zuckerberg who is currently the 5th richest person in the world.[a] Facebook has had documented ties to the CIA and the NSA.[3]

Fake whistleblower incident

In 2021, an ex-employee of Facebook was brought before US congress to testify about the company. Her testimony was basically a demand for increased censorship and government control over the social network. This so-called "whistleblower" was hailed by the US corporate media, unlike the treatment of Julian Assange and Edward Snowden who actually risked their lives to expose truth.[4]

Promotion of violence

Meta's social media Facebook is "temporarily" allowing users to voice support for violence against Russians during the ongoing 2022 Russo-Ukraine conflict, which would've otherwise been against the platform's terms of service.[5]
