Ben & Jerry's plans to join the boycott of Facebook and Instagram ads in the U.S. beginning July 1.

. The group wants the company to create a "separate moderation pipeline" for users who say they've been targeted because of characteristics like their race or religion and to let advertisers see how frequently their ads popped up "next to content that was later removed for misinformation or hate."

Facebook has become more powerful than any other non government in the world. The company is run by a few persons that are far removed from reality. In the process it has become an unregulated monopoly who sets what’s right and wrong. It time the TheJusticeDept to break.

Who cares? Ben and Jerry selling their unhealthy ice cream. Making people fat, diabetic, and unhealthy. Who are they to talk about anything?

Pausing? What kind of boycott is that? Come back when you've coerced them to say and do what you want them to? That's just another form of hating for profit. Hypocrites. hypocrites DoubleStandards

finally seems, people are coming around to commonsense, all i needed was to see what it did to people's attention span and see zuck in action and i knew i'd never be a part of it or his products. the burden of knowledge is often a heavy load that one must carry for a time.

Say it with ice cream!

Over priced junk food....

Whitest company on earth

I've never given Ben & Jerry's a penny for their ice cream. I don't tend to buy products from known assholes.

I’ll support them twice as much after this

Is this Unilever wide?

Mexican ice cream is way better than the bland Ben and Jerry's CRAP.

Everyone should boycott them now!

Wow that sounds really strong. WE plan to boycott them next month. No really. We are gonna.

But they sold out to Unilever!! 🤪

I hope a Jack Dorsey flavor is in the works

What bullshit is this about?🤔 I didn’t get that memo, but they sure get my money when I buy their Cherry Garcia!🙄

I'll buy it now!!!

Ben and Jerry’s has anti-Semitic problem ....

Overpriced and small containers.
