[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition and demand that Meta keep Trump off Facebook for his
violent attempts to overthrow democracy.

Dear MoveOn member,

In the next few weeks, Meta (the company that owns Facebook) will decide
whether Donald Trump will be reinstated and allowed back into his Facebook
account.^1 This news comes just two years after Trump used the platform to
incite a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.^2 

The largest social media platforms on the internet have banned Trump for
his violent rhetoric. And in the past two years, Trump has continued to
use the same incendiary and violent language on his own social media app,
Truth Social—if anything, his rhetoric has only gotten worse, a clear sign
of what he'd do if given a platform on Facebook again. Repeatedly, Trump
has vocalized his baseless accusations of election fraud, amplified hate
groups, and increased his calls for violence.^3 [ [link removed] ]Sign the petition to
keep Trump off Facebook and prevent the spread of disinformation. [ [link removed] ][IMG]

The first time Meta suspended Trump, Meta said it would “assess whether
the risk to public safety has receded” after a two-year suspension.^4 Now
that the two years have passed, it's very clear: Trump remains a risk to
the public safety and the strength of our democracy. On top of spreading
disinformation on Truth Social, Trump continues to spread dangerous
rhetoric promoting violence, and to embrace QAnon at rallies and events.^5

If Meta reinstates Trump, it will only normalize his fringe and extremist
views, effectively handing him a megaphone for his dangerous and extremist
content.  

Social media companies have a fundamental responsibility to protect their
users—and our democracy. Add your name to tell Meta to keep Trump off
Facebook.

We’ve already witnessed the dangers of Trump’s presence on social media
platforms, and reinstating his Facebook account only puts American lives
and our democracy at risk. We cannot and will not normalize his extremism.

Thank you so much,
