Because Facebook and Twitter are controlled by people who are fine with conflict, just not on their platform.

Lol you guys really are stupid if you think that 1) I am a bot and 2) that just because we need the Dems back in power that they shouldn't be criticized or held to a higher standard. Otherwise this shit will happen all over again. But go on and think that they're perfect

No, you're probably a human because you understood context clues. I just don't think you're arguing in good faith because we were criticizing social media executives before you barged in with "BUT WHAT ABOUT DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS, HUH!?"

And what do you think these social media executives are? Who do you think they're pumping millions and millions of dollars too? Very connected.

And what do you think these social media executives are? 

Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump, spez, those guys.

Who do you think they're pumping millions and millions of dollars [to]?

Conservative politicians who will install their toadies into powerful positions in regulatory bodies. Looks like it worked.

Very connected.

Considering one of them is Donald Trump, yup.

As for why you aren't arguing in good faith, we have Republicans openly posting toadies into regulatory bodies to render them impotent right goddamn now, and you're still mewling around about "ThE dEmOcRaTs ThOuGh!" like they're somehow worse than what we have now.

Good day.

By asking what the executive are, I wasn't asking WHO. I meant what. I.r they are Republicans/MAGA.

So Democrats never thought that there should be a checks and balance system with our regulatory bodies and anyone who gets into office can completely wipe them out and do with them what they please? Especially since we knew Republicans were a threat in 2016 and we held office after that...

I also have literally been saying that the Democrats are a lesser of two evils. The Dems are infinitely better than what we have now, but they are almost certainly not "good guys" acting in our best interest. You really think a lot of them aren't lining their pockets and acting in self interest? You're delusional. I want to remain critical of the Dems and hold them accountable so they actually change things and take into account what is in the peoples best interest...not there own.

Thank you. I have too damn much on my plate to read Trumplican talking points from an alleged democrat that were unrelated to the conversation.
