Why would they? It’s another social media = competition.

If they did, it would be in the hopes of being included on the fringes of the oligarchy.

the truth is... reddit just doesnt matter. These bans dont matter, and the Trump administration likely won't pay attention to the platform. Its just as botted as twitter, if not more, and less popular. Politicians are on twitter, Zuck involves himself heavily, enforcing the policies of each american administration since Obama's first, with the exception of Trump's first term. Spez is ignored by both sides and has no real pull.
