Meta's recent changes to its 'hateful conduct' policy have alarmingly removed barriers that prevented users from comparing women to inanimate objects or property, raising concerns about misogyny.
The removal of rules that protected women from derogatory comparisons to household items reflects a broader sociopolitical trend, particularly in the context of the Trump-era, where regressive gender norms thrive.
By allowing such comparisons, Meta not only fails to protect women but also legitimizes harmful ideologies that consider women as possessions, echoing historical abuses like chattel slavery.
This policy shift underscores a dangerous narrative aligning with the 'trad wife' movement, which aims to uphold patriarchal structures, reinforcing women’s subjugation under traditional gender roles.
