People demanding Zuck be hauled before Congress to explain why No Kings insta was suspended... how would you feel if MAGA GOP hauled MSNow execs to explain why they covered Trump the way they do? Both are editorial choices protected by the First Amendment. If this annoys you...

Hey, not the same thing! MSNow is a publisher, social media companies are supposed to not be. So MSNow is entitled to editorial decisions, but when social media wantonly censors content in ways that are expedient for a specific political party - that requires investigating and accountability!

I mean, that's legally wrong. But, if it was true, you supported Louisiana, Missouri, Texas, Ohio & Florida seeking to punish Facebook & Twitter for banning Trump after Jan 6th?

Did Trump violate their terms? Yes. Repeatedly. That's why he got banned. I'm not against platforms upholding their policies, uniformly and fairly. But that's not what is happening now. As to MAGA attacks - that's a given. Don't excuse them by blaming those that MAGA will attack any way.
