Not really surprised, but this is a dangerous game Meta’s playing. Whether you’re pro-Trump or not, the idea of them controlling political narratives is concerning. I didn’t like it with Twitter and I certainly don’t like it here, doesn't matter which side is responsible. What happened to neutrality in tech?
