Hillary Clinton said on CNN, "we lose total control" if social media content is not more regulated. Exactly! She's accidentally admitting the whole point of their attack on social media. Social media can't be contained and they're losing their grip on power. They hate it!
Even Cenk Uygur knows it's wrong.
Remember the old internet when almost every news site would allow you to post comments? Sure don't see many of those anymore. Couldn't help but notice how the comments were almost always heavily against the 'official narrative'... funny how that works.

It's still common here in Asia Ollie. We are moving away from censoring unconventional or unpopular opinions and you North Americans have embraced it with both arms.

Not both, just the left arm.

All the good flamers and trolls left Yahoo boards for dead by that point.

Zuckerberg himself admitted that the Biden White House bullied him into censoring Facebook. Twitter admitted they were told to bury the Hunter Biden laptop case.

Social media is an extension of the increasingly authoritarian Democrat party. I sense that is starting to change.

I hope you're right. And historically we've seen plenty of instances where the political pendulum has ceased its arc and gone in the opposite direction in spite of the best attempts of an authoritarian and their minions.
There were less people on the planet then, less "connectivity". That might work against us.
