Although he described Mark Zuckerberg as a 'good, kind person,' cofounder Chris Hughes says the CEO has always envisioned Facebook's domination.
"From our earliest days, Mark used the word 'domination' to describe our ambitions, with no hint of irony or humility," Hughes wrote in the New York Times."[Facebook] is a powerful monopoly, eclipsing all of its rivals and erasing competition from the social networking category."
Although Hughes hasn't worked at Facebook in more than a decade, he wrote in the Times that he felt"a sense of anger and responsibility" to bring awareness to what he sees as the social network's monopolistic tendencies. "Outside of a couple of gigs in college, Mark had never had a real boss and seemed entirely uninterested in the prospect," Hughes wrote."Mark's drive was infinitely stronger. Domination meant domination, and the hustle was just too delicious."
