    The history of Nazis holding rallies in left-wing areas of Weimar Germany, instigating street fights, and then telling the press that only they could save Germany from the "violent communists" seems like an important thing for people to be studying right now.

    Very much worth reading! (For what it's worth, , I don't see this as in any way incompatible with the work my colleagues at Facebook are doing, so I very much hope we can work together with you towards the vision you set out.)

    Spoke with from earlier this week about what it took to "keep the lights on" when covid-19 sent most of our employees home, how our teams are using AI to fight hate and misinfo on our platforms, and much more.

    There is nothing funnier to me than people using Google Chrome to write a post on Twitter about how they've deleted Facebook. (Bonus points when they include "find me on Insta!")

    Hey folks, just a reminder to get out and vote tomorrow! Swing by any time on Election Day 2018 and tell your server the secret passcode “WURST VOTE” and get yourself a Kolsch or a soft drink for just $.18 (limit one per customer).
