I love this comment. It captures the current political moment like lightning in a bottle, dominated by simpletons who think every action exists in its own sandboxed parallel universe and can be judged without reference to weakening norms or downstream effects in a dynamic system. Truly a work of art.

You appear to be reading a sentiment into my comment thats not there. Facebook can do whatever they want (within the law) because it's their platform and thus their rules.

I'm merely commenting that I'm reasonably convinced they're (in general) removing news and politics from the platform because its _in their interests_ to do so.

Considering the wider issue faced in Australia at the moment, its fair commentary and sarcastic responses don't contribute to the discourse.
