Quite the hyperbole without any evidence. Where is the evidence that they have demanded for censorship? Or have done so in the past where a democrat has censored a social media website? Absolutely none.

Countless Democrats directly called for censorship, even before the alleged incitement. [1]

Just one account, for Donald Trump. That's it. That too because of the hateful content that was being posted.

Have they called out for censorship of things that were critical of them? No? Did they have a committee to investigate that?

Did they meet for dinners with Facebook executives? Oh wait, the Republicans were the one that did that.
