Though he didn't name names, Zuckerberg is likely referring to statements delivered by presidential candidate Donald Trump, who this week called for a total ban on Muslims entering the U.S.
In the post, Zuckerberg used his own faith and upbringing to share his ideals on how attacks on freedoms affect everyone.
"As a Jew, my parents taught me that we must stand up against attacks on all communities," Zuckerberg wrote. "Even if an attack isn't against you today, in time attacks on freedom for anyone will hurt everyone."
