To everyone upvoting because you think Zuck is a fascist, OP almost certainly posted this thinking that calling him a facist for this is the laughable part.
I know that Zuckerberg does things that harm society as a whole, but just changing bathroom amenities is not fascist.
This is degrading the meaning of the word.
Although, musk did start with small steps too and I would consider musk aligned with fascists, based solely on his recent remark regarding eu politics.
It’s all about context. This action by itself means almost nothing.
But once you start asking why he’d do this, and why he’d do it now in particular, and looking at other actions he’s also taken recently, it gains a lot more meaning. This step in particular is closer to “dog whistle” than “blaring siren” on the spectrum, but everything taken together, including this, paints a clear picture.
He’s clearly been taking steps to align himself and his company with the new administration. If you take the new administration to be fascists, then it becomes reasonable to say Zuckerberg’s going all-in on fascism.

I took it more to mean that OP thought Zuck was a fascist before
Look at their other posts. I don’t think that’s the case, though I also wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt.
Yeah, considering what their most recent post was, they are onboard with the fascist.

Authoritarian decision to remove something of a safe space for a minority seems to fit the meaning to me.
