MODERATORS
Sounds like an issue with their work force. Without placing my tin foil hat on they need to hire more people to moderate and clean TOS breaking content.
puts tinfoil hat on
Meta is purposefully allowing far right militias to organize because a libertarian/conservative hellscape would mean their corporation becomes one of the largest fiefdoms.
As someone that used to work for Meta as a contractor for another company that did content moderation for them: I agree completely with your first statement. They fired all of their US based contractors on content moderation and shipped it back to India where they are overworked and don't have the cultural insight to know to take this kind of shit down when reported. They also rely heavily on AI for content moderating that was trained by contractors like myself.
