Other apps don't have a policy to censor anti-government talk.

    Please feel free to provide examples of mainstream Western apps censoring criticisms of government.

      Facebook? Facebook was asked US government to censor/ban political things. Twitter removed Alex Jones for Coronavirus conspiracies, examples are various.
