Gracie said, "I say that we are being paranoid on a lot of issues and we are indeed watching a real monopoly occur in Facebook who are indeed taking it upon themselves to monitor and decide what is worthy and what is right."
When I was very young and started to play monopoly, I asked why certain properties like Baltic were so cheap and was told it's because the Ns live there. We've come a long way from accepting the N word.
As we evolve and grow more intelligent, we learn things, but we still don't accept them. For example there is only one race, the human race, but we define those we don't like by weaponizing culture wars, by saying the black race, the Asian race, the white race, when we are all the same race. What separates us are our egos. The old expression of "woke" or "Wake up" means for one to become self-aware, questioning the dominant paradigm and striving for something better."
Facebook is a corporation, but unlike most businesses, which truly have become monopolies, via destroying competition in order to form conglomerates, Facebook is nowhere close to a monopoly, unless they also owned twitter, Tik Tok, etc. If you don't believe Facebook doesn't have a right to make the rules for their corporation, then I challenge you to go to a restaurant without a top and bare footed and see what they say to you.
