How is that remotely similar? Trump was banned for condoning political violence after losing an election

How about you spell it out? Trump blatantly violated the end user agreement and was banned for it, explain how that’s relevant to a situation where a politician’s campaign ads are banned with no reason given

ur so fixated on nitpicking the example that you’ve missed the point entirely .. and yes, Trump is still in office .. cope harder ;)
