This is not about petty politics and frankly I think your topic shift is completely out of place here. What this is fundamentally about is preventing any idiot with money and/or power from purchasing/capturing and then proceeding to ruin our townsquares like some wannabe totalitarian asshole. And some people will say that "it's ok, because it's a private platform and he bought/built it". Ok, now it's a million private platforms, he can go buy each and every one of them and we'll make new ones and move to the ones he hasn't bought yet.
Completely agree with this.
Well said
