You want them to only be friends with Democrats? That's the future we want right, only one-sided? I'm sure Mark is friend with people from both parties, that quote needs a citation. Hell the guy has met with other world leaders before. I'm not a Mark Zuckerberg fan mind you.

They have too much influence to be 'friends' with anyone to be honest.

We can all complain about it, nothing will change, but there is no denying, that such a big fish shouldn't have such a big influence on things because of their 'friends'.

But whatever

This is true, it's more like just political connections at this rate.

The Dem, Republic split is a tool for getting things done. They can be friends with whoever they want. It's better for Steve Jobs that Bill Gates is his main rival, rather than a German, British or Chinese tech company. A democrat can play off a republican to force through change or achieve goals. We get herded into the middle of a story by real world details being politicized. Republicans and dems will control the internet news stream by killing off fake/Russian news. They'll clean up areas of money flow with 'shocking' exposes. You can see it coming if you remember the patterns over time. It's getting boring to watch..
