I’m shocked.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A group of Meta employees is calling out what they claim is internal and external censorship by the company of any show of support for Palestinians amid Israel’s war with Hamas.

“While we loudly display ‘Your voice is valued,’ CEE is used as a guise to delete dissenting opinions and silence employees that may simply be seeking solace from their coworkers or raising awareness about building safer products,” the letter said, referring to Meta’s internal community-engagement expectations.

It also asked for resources dedicated to investigating allegations of censorship on its apps and that leadership “issue a public statement urging for an immediate, permanent ceasefire in Gaza.”

The authors of the letter noted that Zuckerberg publicly and internally condemned the October 7 attacks on Israel by Hamas, a group based in the Gaza Strip that’s widely designated as a terrorist organization.

While the letter noted Zuckerberg said he was focused “on the safety of our employees and their families in Israel and the region,” it said the CEO had not made any such comments of support over the past six months “for our Palestinian colleagues and allies nor condemnation of the attacks on Palestine.”

When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, another ongoing war, the authors of the letter said, “There was an outpouring of leadership support on all fronts, including additional resourcing and investment through various social impact initiatives.”
