It's the right thing to do.

Facebook won't change by inside. Zuck will change his behavior when he feels the pain in his pocket. Every decent person must quit now. Quit. Now.

Everyone who thinks noteworthy public statements shouldn't be removed is a bad person according to you?

This is just one more specific problem. FB is nocive for the world. If you stay there, you are an accomplice.

I find the complaints overblown myself. It seems like just a site people can see posts from other people on, which relies on standard adtech for funding, which I also don't consider evil. The big thing was CA which can't even be proven FB was complicit in.

A gun is just a cylinder where a projectile comes from.

While it's always a good time to take the action, I'd expect anyone motivated primarily by morals and not compensation to quit long time ago already, or not join Facebook in the first place.
