    There is a justified criticism somewhere in there. Large social media platforms is functionally as much a public space as the local town square and as such the discretionary policing of those spaces by private tyrannies who are accountable to no one except their shareholders constitutes a major threat to free speech and democratic debate.

    It is just weird to see that criticism coming from someone who wants unaccountable tyrannies to rule everything.

      That's the thing, they don't want democratic control of these institutions, they somehow think that less government is still the answer. It's absurd.

        They want a brutal feudal society where they themselves get to be lords.
