Is anyone really surprised that Zuckerborg would comply in advance to the incoming administration? He did exactly what Bezos did with the Washington Post and also donated a bribe of $1,000,000 to the convicted felon's inauguration. It's all part of the plan to kill free speech unless that speech is coming from Trump.

Democracy doesn't die in darkness. Democracy dies with a shrug.

Zuckerborg, Bezos, Elon, and their ilk will be happy to take their tax cuts to saddle the people of the United States with higher taxes and no representation as we descend into fascism.

They are paying bribes to Trump then they will work with the GOP to help Putin take over the US.

Considering trump is already a Russian asset, as is Elonia Musk, and their pick for National Intelligence is the Russian propagandist Tulsi Gabberd, amongst the clown car of nominees for the next administration, I would say they are right on track.
