Sooo, if the accepted underlying business model is, "whoever bullies the best, is entitled to the fruits of bullying—and it better be us" (or in the words of Kanye, "I would rather be a dick that a swallower"), then there is no liberalism to speak of. Lofty words are useless.

To me, it doesn't matter which entity uses platforms to confuse, trick, meddle, or incite. And sadly, everybody and their dog do just that. So it is hypocritical to only be upset when "they" do it. It should be upsetting in every case, or else it is dishonest to our species.
