Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg's decision to remove tampons from Meta’s male restrooms has prompted employees to take matters into their own hands as Zuckerberg turns to the right side. In contrast, his employees are stuck in the hamster wheel of the left’s progressive policies.
Zuckerberg has made a concerted effort to mend ties with President Donald Trump, beginning with a face-to-face meeting at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate and a $1 million donation to his inauguration fund. In the wake of that meeting, Zuckerberg rolled out a series of strategic shifts within Meta aimed at distancing the company from its previously entrenched left-leaning reputation.
To start, he removed feminine hygiene products from men’s restrooms, which had been provided for transgender and nonbinary employees, as part of his move to get rid of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives at the company.
However, woke employees have begun to protest the move quietly.
According to the New York Times, Meta workers are bringing their own tampons, pads and liners to the men’s bathrooms. In addition, some employees have distributed a petition to save the tampons.
In response to the petition, the vice president of workplace services said that while it “not been the intention of Meta leadership to make employees feel unwelcome or excluded in our offices, at this point, we do not have plans to revisit our on-site amenities offerings.”
The recent pushback from employees against their Big Tech bosses' support of Trump goes beyond Meta.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai requested that an employee approve a fireworks animation to be featured on the search engine for Trump’s inauguration. Fortune reported that the employee hesitated but ultimately did so unwillingly.
