Jesse Eisenberg publicly distanced himself from Mark Zuckerberg, whom he portrayed in 'The Social Network'. Expressing his disapproval, Eisenberg stated he avoids following Zuckerberg's life due to its problematic nature. He criticized Zuckerberg's recent changes to Facebook's fact-checking system, which he believes exacerbates societal threats. Eisenberg also touched on Zuckerberg's controversial interactions with former President Trump and questioned the use of immense wealth among billionaires for political favor, emphasizing a disconnect between their financial power and societal responsibility.
"I haven’t been following his (Zuckerberg's) life trajectory, partly because I don’t want to think of myself as associated with somebody like that."
"It's like this guy is doing things that are problematic, taking away fact-checking. Making people who are already threatened in this world more threatened."
