That sort of hairsplitting doesn't make much sense to me. It's like saying one gangster isn't as bad as another because one has a shorter wrap sheet. It's a difference that doesn't make a difference. They are evil in the same way, as media institutions of a accelerating surveillance and propaganda regime. Facebook is older and has been at it longer, but Twitter is no slouch when it comes to being a front organization for the secret police state. Twitter is another co-opted tech company whose libertarian minded leadership has long been gelded by institutional power. Assume the management of these companies is seeded with government allies at a minimum, incentivizing, cajoling, sabotaging, or threatening the public leadership of the company, as need be.
