Over the past few weeks, the Facebook Papers have reaffirmed that FB has fueled the spread of hate speech & misinfo around the world.

But there’s a crucial piece missing from the story. FB isn’t just amplifying misinfo.

The company is also funding it. https://t.co/DHEoABGbCi

'User interfaces aren’t just about technology or data gathering; they mediate how we relate to the kinds of culture that we consume through apps. A change to Instagram’s design influences how we keep photo albums; a change to Twitter’s influences how we access news.'
