They would be stupid not to. At this point it's almost guaranteed he will win the presidency. Nobody would like to make an enemy of POTUS.

You get the downvotes, but in a way you're right. With scotus ruling the next president could do whatever they want as an official act and there would be little to no recourse. Sure they could sue but that would almost definitely get tied up in courts for a long time. Mr. Robot is just covering his own ass. That ruling by scotus will be the downfall of the wrong people are able to take advantage of it.

"Just covering his ass" this attitude is why our country is fucked. Well as long as it benefits the millionaire personally to be a coward and sell us out, then that's okay

These millionaires want all the power but refuse accountability. Why give him an out?

I never once said it was ok. You know I should personally ring him up and tell him that his choices aren't so chill.

I just explained the reasoning behind Facebook’s actions. Now everyone is calling me a fascist. I’m a progressive FFS. You guys are out of your minds.

Then why don't you edit your post to make your meaning clearer? Because if everyone is misunderstanding, then it's probably not all our fault.
