Can you trust Mark Zuckerberg? This episode dives into Meta’s sweeping policy changes and question whether they reflect a commitment to free expression or strategic pandering. We analyze his six-point plan, including community-driven content moderation and efforts to fight global censorship. Along the way, we explore the limits of shame, the Popper Paradox, and why fostering trust and Grace is essential for meaningful societal change.
