More gov't censorship and control over social media...

Good, maybe it'll drive people away from social media. Trumpism? 100% caused by social media. Anti-vaccine movement and COVID Denial? 100% social media driven.
Social media has killed more people in the last decade than anything else. Facebook and TikTok will be the downfall of our civilization as we know it.

Yeah driven by the social media that competes with TikTok. Now all that is going to be available to Americans will be the platforms that bias right wing content.
