Facebook systematically promotes and propogates the most inflammatory content posted on its platform. Why? Because it is the most engaging. This is part of the intentional design of Facebook, and is the fundamental reason there are so many problematic things happening on the platform.

Mark's "thoughts" on the topic do nothing to address this in any way.

In other words, the plan is "business as usual."
