Mark Zuckerberg defended the presence of Holocaust denial on Facebook in a lengthy and, at times, bizarre interview with Recode’s Kara Swisher on Tuesday. His position has been condemned by Jewish organizations who argue that Facebook is responsible for preventing hateful speech on its platform, and that allowing it causes harm.

The Facebook CEO said of Holocaust deniers—an example that he volunteered in order to demonstrate the platform’s complicated relationship with disinformation: “I don’t think that they’re intentionally getting it wrong… It’s hard to impugn intent and to understand the intent.”
