So section 230 protects social media platforms regarding content users post.

If they reinstate a user deleted post who owns it?

Hoping this blows up in their faces as it's a really shitty course of action to take.

Legally, they are probably fine. They’ll delete your account and disassociate your comments from it if you ask and that likely has them covered.

your post is your IP and you own the rights to it and the right to have them deleted.

Oh, that's a really interesting take! I wonder if there's even any precedent for this sort of thing...
