Click here: “We connect people. Period. That’s why all the work we do in growth is justified. All the questionable contact importing practices. All the subtle language that helps people stay searchable by friends. All of the work we do to bring more communication in. The work we will likely have to do in China some day. All of it,” Facebook VP Andrew “Boz” Bosworth wrote in the memo, “So we connect more people, that can be bad if they make it negative. Maybe it costs someone a life by exposing someone to bullies. Maybe someone dies in a terrorist attack coordinated on our tools. The ugly truth is that we believe in connecting people so deeply that anything that allows us to connect more people more often is *de facto* good. It is perhaps the only area where the metrics do tell the true story as far as we are concerned.”

Why The Paris Climate Accord is Such a Fraud

Post author By Falcon
Post date March 24, 2018

President Trump is right to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement! The deal isn’t worth the paper it is written on.

But many politicians and much of the media are horrified. Al Gore called pulling out of the Paris Agreement a “reckless and indefensible decision.” Former President Obama said: “This administration joins a handful of nations that reject the future.” Really? Have they read the agreement?

John Stossel explains why in a short 4-minute video.
