I have come to notice an interesting comparison on the topic of what to do about social media targeting of conservatives.
On the one hand
Any conservative who talks about increasing regulation or anti trust measures, is met with friendly rejoicing from swamp creatures everywhere. You can trust the swamp, and the swamp will trust you.
On the other hand
Any conservative who dares talk about section 230 of the Communications Decency Act gets piled on, attacked, and chased out of town.
The only flak is over the CDA 230 airspace. That has to be the target.

Most Libertarians are too weak for this fight. They are going to purge conservatives anyway.

I once heard someone on the radio refer to Libertarians as nothing more than confused liberals.

I happen to think it’s fear more often, which leads them to use moral equivalence (i.e. both sides are bad), but getting more upset with conservatives in reality to keep the left from going after them.
