Nah it's clearly ideological when you look at the details of their new moderation policies. They now allow you to call people crazy, but only if it's because they're LGBT.

I don't think so. Zuck never cared about people, he's cut-throat, egotistical and money/power focussed. He wouldn't take the time for thinking about insulting the little people (non-millionaires). He's done it to encourage more users to use the platform and create disputes/content which is cold hard cash to him. Remember when they experimented with users by showing them content that would trigger them to make them interact?
