Was Melon Husk, aka "Mr. Free Speech" getting caught tweaking the Twitter algorithm to ensure MAGA lies and disinfo got the maximum amount of circulation while tweets from the most prominent Dem accounts got suppressed... Now Zuckerberg is doing the same with Facebook.

Can you imagine if Elmo went the other way and cut off the flow of MAGA accounts? Donnie would be suing the absolute shit out of twitter right now and Congressional Trumpers would be discussing a national ban for the platform
