L'annonce ne me surprend pas (le fact-checking a toujours été une épine dans le pied de Meta). Par contre je suis étonnée qu'on n'écrive pas plus sur la radicalisation du discours de Zuckerberg, entamée depuis quelques années maintenant. C'est pas très différent des propos de Musk à bien des égards.

La justice a déclaré coupable tous les accusés, et infligé la peine maximale à Dominique Pélicot.

Merci Gisèle pour votre courage. Ce procès historique a brisé les tabous et constitue un véritable tournant pour la société entière dans la lutte contre la culture du viol.

La honte changera de camp.
