No Zuckerberg is just part of the fascist movement now, since the right uses corporate social media and is more tolerant of ads than the left now. Before he was more interested in attracting technically literate people who would actually use the platform and were more tolerant of user experience changes as they tried to become more profitable, which was more the left. Now that technical literacy is allowing them to move to platforms where they aren't a product, so the profit is in the people who are stuck with the platform.
