The former Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven announces in a post on Facebook that he will leave the social media platform.
“I can no longer be involved in or support media platforms that contribute to undermining democracy”, Löfven writes in the post.
He does, however, mean that “good forces” remain on the platform and takes the opportunity to thank his friends.
“Aware that many good forces are present here, I would like to say: thank you all friends, we’ll meet in other contexts”, writes the former Prime Minister.
Stefan Löfven concludes the post with an appeal.
“As long as you’re here – do your best to stand up for what’s good!”
For those who aren’t familiar with psychographic profiling, there’s a documentary on Netflix about Cambridge Analytica’s partnership with Facebook to influence the Brexit vote and the 2016 US election called, “The Great Hack.” It’s very accessible for the non-technical, and the testimony comes directly from individuals involved in the project. I highly recommend it.
Thank you!
He didn’t say where he’s going to next 🤔 Could’ve been the chance to promote the fediverse. Although, I imagine he’s probably not aware of it.
