meta's daily revenues are over $550M. this fine (even if it's upheld on appeal, which it probably won't be) is nothing.

Do any social media execs not have ties to pedophilia whether personally or through the tech they manage?

The illuminati isn't a cabal of wealthy world controlling reptiles, it's just a club of old pedophiles.

Right? When is X with grok.AI going to also be held accountable?

No. If someone’s wealth (net worth) is above 10m you can assume they diddle kids

One billion. Although, that would mean Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Beyonce, and I doubt any of the three do it.

I don’t. I don’t doubt that all of them have been at parties hosted by incredibly disgusting people with probably underage people working the f****** party. Participation is endorsement.

I suppose it really is hard to trust any celebrity, so you’ve got a point.

Meta's entire defense was basically "we try really hard and bad things still happen." The jury looked at the internal documents showing they knew exactly what was happening and took 24 hours to call that argument what it was.

The jury cheaped out on damages though.

What was the max fine amount? I bet it’s still just “the price of doing business.” The US doesn’t exactly hold anyone or company accountable.

Max fine was ~3 billion -- more than enough to really sting

375 million is like a rounding error for meta. they need fines that actually hurt or nothing changes

At a certain point fines are a cost of doing business for these corporations. Why should we allow a business that has been found guilty of harming people to continue operating?

They lobby elections with money greater than these fines. It’s just an end of year line item for these parasites.

Meta made about 60bil in 2025. This is cost of business money for them.

They needed to increase this fine by at minimum 30x or 40x so they could actually feel it in some capacity.

Its wild how any company can still exist after doing things like this. The company should be completely shut down

Nice. Let’s get some intel of Jeffery Epstein’s home there and why it’s under construction!!

Turns out the tech bro tech revolution was just more pedophilia the whole time.

A New Mexico state court jury on Tuesday held Meta liable for nearly $400 million in civil damages after a trial where the state attorney general accused the Facebook and Instagram operator of **failing to safeguard kids who use its apps from child predators.** Idk, how do you think they should go about doing that? ID check everyone? Monitor every chat?

LOL, walking around money. THAT will show'em. This is pathetic.

Honestly, social media needs background checks, and proof of identity.

Everyone downvoting you but if this lawsuit stands that is exactly what is going to happen lmao

Everyone is also screaming to protect the kids, but then oppose everything that would help protect them

Opposite-Lobster2470 Mar 25, 2026 +1
It’s because of feel-good slacktivism that is all over social media and this site specifically. People following trends because everyone else is without any thought to the outcomes and then trying to chicken out last second because they didn’t actually realize what they were fighting for
