I get where they’re coming from. Moderating a huge online presence where people can make posts about things is difficult and costly. But… It’s their platform and they’re in charge of it. So… It kinda sounds like they have to.

They’re complaining because they don’t WANT to, not because they don’t have the money to.

They want to hoard more billions.
