The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Mark Zuckerberg's New Look (feat. Pablo Torre)

He came out and really, in a way that he hasn't publicly- It was fake? Slammed the hell out of that story.

I love the idea that he says, whoever said I had a $600 million wedding is outright lying. It's preposterous. We're just dating. Yeah.

I mean, yeah, he didn't volunteer the number, but look, there's a lot of online conjecture about Jeff Bezos and he's never really been all that compelled to come out as strongly as he did. So I'm guessing something was off there when the reported detail was $600 million. He came out on social media and blasted it.

But the through line here is that they are coming out strongly. And I mean that literally like Jeff Bezos is jacked now. Mark Zuckerberg works out like these guys have become the other side of the cultural aisle when it comes from Nerdville now to like we are jocks.

what i was going to say about the content moderation thing is simply that they don't have to worry about that question anymore because now content moderation is what they always wanted it to be which was just satiating the people who could get them in trouble content moderation was always about how do we protect our own asses and now the people holding them to account are not some larger uh democracy with sensitivity towards minority groups it's just the one guy

And so on the board of Meta is Dana White. We know his general approach to, quote unquote, free speech. And we know that he's now dissolving Mark Zuckerberg is the board that he had tried to install. That would be a pseudo Supreme Court in terms of figuring out what's OK and what's not. So everybody can stop pretending that they cared about content moderation.

And now it's just straight appeasement, which is, again, predictable, but also very funny visually.

Pablo, one of the most shocking things I think about that video was the part where he says, in part, this decision is because, well, we saw the election. He outright says it. The other people have spoken. They don't care about this stuff. America wants this. It's one thing to say, hey, I don't want the burden of censorship. It's one thing to say, hey, we're going from

You know, removing content to reducing mistakes in removing content, like all those things I think you can make a rational argument for and see like, yeah, that makes sense. But when he blatantly says, yeah, the election results also let us know that like the time for changing. That was the part I was shocked that he would admit out loud.

Yeah, and by the way, I don't have a good solution, right? Content moderation is, in fact, really hard. Look at Elon's approach to X. His approach has been a winning one, a quote unquote popular one, to go to the rhetoric that Amin was just citing there. I don't have a good solution. It's literally why I keep on repeating this. The Supreme Court has to rule over these free speech issues.

There is no easy standard for what is fire in a crowded theater versus abuse of minorities. It's incredibly hard and it's a case by case basis and it's not best left to tech companies. But to what Amin is saying, like they're basically saying, yeah, look, Trump won and people don't care anymore about this. And I think that is, I guess, statistically narrowly true.
