From ‘masculine energy’ to scrapping fact-checks, Mark Zuckerberg’s recent moves align Meta with Donald Trump

After scrapping Meta Platform's fact-checking policies, Chairman and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has made another public manoeuvre, seemingly aligning himself and his mega corporation with the coming Donald Trump administration. Speaking on The Joe Rogan Experience, the influential American media personality Joe Rogan's podcast, published on January 10, Zuckerberg expressed regret over the “neutered” state of companies, stating that they need to “celebrate masculine aggression a bit more”, Bloomberg reported. The ‘Elusive’ Masculine Energy Zuckerberg lamented to Rogan during the three-hour conversation, “Masculine energy I think is good, and obviously society has plenty of that, but I think that corporate culture was really trying to get away from it.” “It’s like you want feminine energy, you want masculine energy. Zuckerberg also took repeated allegation against outgoing US President Joe Biden during the interview, claiming White House officials would “scream” and “curse” at Meta employees over content related to COVID-19 during the pandemic. “The US government should be defending its companies, not be at the tip of the spear attacking its companies,” Zuckerberg said, adding that he is “optimistic” about Trump, “I think he just wants America to win.” The Biden administration declined to comment on Zuckerberg's allegations, the report added.
