Meta Criticized for Inadequate Moderation of Anti-Trans Hate Speech

GLAAD's report highlights a failure by Meta to enforce its own policies against hate speech, leading to widespread anti-trans content on its platforms.

GLAAD's recent report documents dozens of anti-trans posts on Meta's platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and Threads, that violate the company's hate speech policies.
Meta often fails to remove reported posts that violate its hate speech policies, allowing anti-trans rhetoric to flourish.
High-profile accounts, including far-right influencers and media outlets, have been identified as sources of anti-trans content.
The lack of enforcement by Meta has been linked to real-world harms against LGBTQ+ individuals, including threats and violence.
GLAAD calls for urgent action from Meta to better moderate content and protect vulnerable users from hate speech.
