Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is increasingly hostile to government regulation and skeptical of social justice, sources familiar told The New York Times on Tuesday.
People who have spoken with Zuckerberg recently say that his beliefs now most align with libertarianism or “classical liberalism,” and that the tech mogul has made moves to clamp down on left-wing activism within Meta, according to the NYT. Zuckerberg’s ideological trajectory tracks with a broader rightward shift occurring in the upper echelons of Silicon Valley, with many tech executives who have previously supported Democrats now throwing money behind former President Donald Trump.
Zuckerberg is also attempting to mend his relationship with Trump, with the two sharing a cordial phone call and the president expressing gratitude for the tech CEO’s kind words following the attempt on his life, according to the NYT.
“Seeing Donald Trump get up after getting shot in the face and pump his fist in the air with the American flag is one of the most badass things I’ve ever seen in my life,” Zuckerberg said following the attempted assassination in June. “On some level as an American, it’s like hard to not get kind of emotional about that spirit and that fight, and I think that that’s why a lot of people like the guy.”

Oh come on! What’s next, his head exploded and he healed on stage like the T1000? He wasn’t shot anywhere, let alone in the face. He was hit with debris from the teleprompter, and completely healed in less than a week because of the insignificance of the wound.
