- pas 9y agoThere were/are 100m+ user, who wanted none of that political shitstorm. it's not a witch hunt.
- baq 9y agoThink about it this way: your communication platform serving several hundred million users is being trolled by a very vocal minority which happens to be politically aligned and it cannot be excluded that the trolling is in some cases inspired and sponsored by a foreign nation state. Do you really keep your hands off the wheel because free speech?
