"We saw protesters tear gassed yesterday to make way for a presidential photo-op. I'd like to ask you what you think about that, and if you don't want to comment, what message do you think you're sending?" a reporter asked Trudeau.

 

Trudeau paused for over 20 seconds before responding.

 

"We all watch in horror and consternation what's going on in the United States," Trudeau said.

 

"It is a time to pull people together, but it is a time to listen," he said. "It is a time to learn what injustices continue despite progress over years and decades."

What Facebook doesn’t understand about the Facebook walkout

 

On Friday afternoon, Facebook made one of its most controversial content moderation decisions in company history. After President Trump posted to Facebook some tweets that Twitter had placed behind a warning for “glorifying violence,” Mark Zuckerberg said that the company would allow them to stand.

 

“I know many people are upset that we’ve left the President’s posts up,” Zuckerberg said in a Facebook post, “but our position is that we should enable as much expression as possible unless it will cause imminent risk of specific harms or dangers spelled out in clear policies.”

 

“When the looting starts, the shooting starts,” Trump had tweeted — quoting a former Miami police chief who, in 1967, called for a violent crackdown on the city’s black community. And just as the president suggested, a long weekend of violence followed in the United States, with police assaulting protesters and bystanders across the country in the days that followed.

 

Zuckerberg said that Facebook left the post up for two reasons: one, that “people need to know if the government is planning to deploy force.” And two, that Trump had sort of (maybe?) walked back his original post in a later one, “saying that the original post was warning about the possibility that looting could lead to violence.” So whether or not Trump meant to incite violence with his words, Zuckerberg argued, Facebook had good reason to let the post stand.
