Comment on Meanwhile in Germany
xaera@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoDW News, Germany is far different from the German people that were pre-WW2. This is dank because Trump is coming into power and he said dictator from day one.
Alas, even what he said is egregious it rapidly/rapistly follows his president.
History repeating, or do you not get it?

And what does any of this has to do with Facebook fact checking?

Maybe they refer to the banner below: “US president-elect Donald Trump refuses to rule out using military force to gain control”? Still doesn’t make real sense to me, but at least that would align with their comment.

Yeah, but then what does it have to do with Germany? This is just confusing …

Sorry, I have to use German key-words below, as those are strongly bound to the worst part of our culture and history and are not translatable, maybe you get the concept by looking at translated version of my Wikipedia links:
With regards to the timing, only few days before the Machtergreifung in the USA, what Meta does looks to me like Vorauseilender Gehorsam as preparation to use the 2.0 digital versions of Volksempfänger to enable entities with similar job and plans like Joseph Goebbels to mass-share propaganda lies. In Summary: Big tech started with their Gleichschaltung without any order (yet) nor resistence.
As said, this is what the news about “fact check being removed” triggers for me. Not sure if OP meant the same, though.
