Mark Zuckerberg Asks Employees to Stop Crossing Out ‘Black Lives Matters’ on Office Walls

Zuckerberg wrote in the memo, "'Black Lives Matter' doesn't mean other lives don't -- it's simply asking that the black community also achieves the justice they deserve."

No, Mark, "All" includes Blacks and is in alignment with published and enforced Facebook policies. "Black" excludes every other race, and thus the majority of Facebook employees - and by the way, you don't employ an acceptable number of Blacks, statistically speaking, according to your communist friends.

So yeah, find your culprit. Then watch as he sues your @ss off for supporting anti-white discrimination, denying allowed speech, creating a hostile work environment for non- blacks and violating company policies to go on a racist witch hunt to get him. You'll lose your butt, and millions of dollars, and set Silicon Valley precedent.

In fact, if the employee is smart he'd be talking to a lawyer right now, while you're hunting him to support your racist oppression against him.

Well, stop using the peoples office walls to host political indoctrination, and they’ll probably stop crossing it out in retaliation.

It seems as though there's a faction of Facebook employees who don't believe that black lives matter and they have been expressing their displeasure by crossing out anything in reference to Black Lives Matter on the office walls.

Non sequitur. Maybe they are sick of having it constantly thrown in their face in the manner of Nazi propaganda attacking Jews?

We have far too much "Gleichschaltung" going around lately.

I made up a sticker for my black Pontiac Vibe. “Black Vibes Matter”

[rktman]

Just remember the furor over somebody posting #blacklabsmatter? LOL!

[kaehurowing]

Even liberal Silicon Valley is starting to see the light of the BLM nonsense.

Correct response: “You write on the walls of this office complex, you lose your job. We do not tolerate vandalism.”

Any other response is not business oriented and absurdly incorrect.

[rktman]

Apparently mr white guilt promotes such activity to allow employees to “express” themselves. Well as long he’s okay with said expression.

They are probably dry-erase walls, not that it matters.

[LambSlave]

Should just write, “I love being white”

[DiogenesLamp]

So in other words, you must accept being regarded as "Untermenschen."

Seems like we have to fight the Nazis in this century too.

The walls' purpose at Facebook has always been to serve as an outlet for employees to voice their opinions and express themselves.

Baloney. The wall's purpose at Facebook has always been to serve as a platform for politically correct messaging - no other kind will be tolerated, obviously. I'd care more if what Facebook produced had any real significance. I know a couple of people who work at Facebook. Neither of them have any illusions about the usefulness of the company or their work there.

[rktman]

LOL! But they don’t turn down those paychecks do they?

[Two Kids' Dad]

What if one of his employees simply wrote “But not more than others’ lives” underneath? Or maybe “as do all lives.”

Would that be acceptable? Would it be deemed hateful?

The walls' purpose at Facebook has always been to serve as an outlet for employees to voice their opinions and express themselves.

But they were just voicing their opinions...

[Pollster1]

Don’t cross out the whole thing. Just replace “Black” with “Blue”, “All”, or “Most”. [Plagiarizing from another Freeper, but I forgot who it was.]

[ichabod1]

At least when it comes to #blm. That’s like holy writ.

[Two Kids' Dad]

How would all the lefties feel about a stand-alone comment of “Fetal Lives Matter”? Would that be allowed to remain on the wall? Would he require that it not be vandalized because the author of the phrase has the right to have their opinion remain unmolested?

Are they writing on black boards or white boards?
