"It's interesting how hard Zuck is working to try and conflate the idea of 'free speech' with paid advertisements."

My free speech rights include the right to pay for an advertisement to get across my message or to join with others to do so. Progressives dominate the media and academia and want to shut down other outlets.

>Progressives dominate the media

Don't y'all have Fox News and Sinclair Broadcasting?

So you agree that all other media is dominated by progressives and everyone else should just settle Fox News and Sinclair Broadcasting?

No I don't agree. I am just pointing out that you have outlets available to you. From what I can tell the media is mostly about middle-of-the-road inoffensive capitalism.
