Zuckerberg said senior Biden administration officials “repeatedly pressured” Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, to “censor” content in 2021. “I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken,” he wrote to House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). “Like I said to our teams at the time, I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards due to pressure from any Administration in either direction – and we’re ready to push back if something like this happens again,” Zuckerberg added.

    Do you think the government has complete control over your speech now? Do you think you are absolutely free to say whatever you want? I don’t even know where to start with someone who doesn’t understand that it doesn’t have to be one or the other despite, right now, it not being one or the other.

        I don’t know where to start with someone who doesn’t understand the concept of a slippery slope or legal precedent.

        Well, when you figure it out, let me know where because it’s clear you don’t understand either of those terms.
