The damage has been done. Facebook, Google/YouTube, Twitter (and “MSM” but that’s not new)... they’ve made their priorities clear. We know who they are. They have zero credibility at this point. There is some tragic irony here. That loss of credibility creates a void of trust. Who fills the void? Well, ironically, it’s the very same propagandists that Facebook et al claim to be defending against with their censorship. The “fake news” spam blogs exploit this lack of trust to push transparently biased agendas. People gravitate toward the sources compatible with their biases. But nobody notices when some misinformation slips into the same source. This should not be a surprise. Threads on this topic a year ago were filled with the same criticism. By censoring opposing ideas, you give them reason to exist. By wasting your credibility, you create a situation where censoring and deplatforming a viewpoint only serves to amplify its cause.
