Please stop the whataboutism. The devil doesn't need an advocate. Go home.

I don’t consider it whataboutism, I think that many social media companies are clearly in literal violation of googles policies and thus citing policy to shut down truth social gets an “okay bro” reaction.

The moderation is clearly totally arbitrary in where it draws the line regardless of if truth social is or is not worse than other social media platforms. Google is effectively making this up as they go.

The distinction might be: are they at least trying and putting a reasonable investment into moderation, or do they not care / have no plausible plan.

Disclaimer: I have to idea what degree of content moderation Truth Social currently has... but it certainly wouldn't shock me if they have no viable plan or aren't bothering to try very hard.

It is objectively whataboutism, and welcome to the real world.
