> - Governments have far more power and resources to skew the narrative. s/Government have/Google has/g > Governments are less accountable than any private individual or organization.

Both Facebook and Google are both domestic entities and look at all of the polarization and discord that they have caused this election cycle. > - Governments have a historical track-record of tyranny, and have generally caused more harm than private organizations. In this era, the source of tyranny is private corporations that grant themselves monopolies with red tape and further regulations that make competition impossible. I guess based upon your arguments, we should grant private corporations a monopoly on speech.
