Thank you for that most informative piece about the broader implications, including internationally, of Facebook ceasing to do fact checking. Closer to home, I am concerned about the predictable increase in hate speech,which can translate to actual violence against women, gay people, and people of color. I've heard that it will now be permissible to refer to women as "household objects" and to call gay people "it." I've read that more than once about FB's changes.
