This puzzles me. Why do these Meta employees care for LGBTQ people? How can anyone work for Meta and have a conscience?

Dude I've never had a single job that wasn't for an entity I didn't find morally reprehensible. I don't think most people will ever have a choice in this matter. You have to work to eat.
There is more often than not a choice. Take what job you can get, but that doesn’t mean you need stop looking.
That's by design. We're all wage slaves to the rich to be exploited. Upward mobility is a myth.
Cognitive dissonance.
Meta's anti-LGBT rules are closely knit to their ending the fact-checking: It is science denialism and linked to racism and vaccine skepticism.
Homosexuality and gender identity are not considered mental illnesses, Sex is not a binary, and Race is not connected to intelligence.
Bigots never liked science on these three, and now they use political power to impose their narrative.
Meta never moderated such discourse. Nor reddit nor twitter nor youtube. There was no censorship to end here. What this is, it is a free pass to punch down trans and gay people. It is incitement to violence, and Zuckerberg and Musk must go to the gallows for it.
Don't get me started on the toxic harassment these platforms have allowed against African and Carribean reparation activists, how they have destroyed the lives of feminists, and how they have named all Palestinians terrorists.
At this point race realists and gender essentialists have ensured political and technological control of the narrative.
There is no room for debating sealioning trolls on this one. If they don't understand the social dynamics against gender/sex/minorities at this moment, they are no better than brownshirts.
It is permabans and hooks and jabs all the way, for every single weird freak that backs this deranged hateful shit.
I refuse to use Meta, and I block their various URLs in my home. Friends and family complain and give me grief about it. It's astonishing how much of a creep Zuck is, and yet he's got his hooks in deep, and some people are still addicted to his garbage.
