Well yeah, but saying this was all on democrats isn't true, either. A democratic signed it, but an entire group of Democrats and Republicans are the reason it exists. Besides, I'm ok with the ban. A lot of people are actually, so technically, yeah it will affect who we vote for haha

Maybe in your circles people are okay with banning a social media company due to perceived 'spying', but in reality we know why the blues/reds want to ban it.

People in my circles are fighting and helping share why these bans are bad for our society and free speech in general.

I hope that helps you see a different view from what you are used to!

No, not really. It's cool of you disagree with me, though.
