thank you, I try my best.

the "FB as virtues" is an insight I glimpsed through Stratechery's analysis of Facebook's woes [1].

> All news sources are competing on an equal footing; those controlled or bought by a party are not inherently privileged.

> The likelihood any particular message will “break out” is based not on who is propagating said message but on how many users are receptive to hearing it. The power has shifted from the supply side to the demand side.

> on Facebook both small companies and large companies have an equal shot at customers, and both Party insiders and complete outsiders have an equal shot at voters.

so then, apparently democracy is good, justice is good, but everything is better in moderation, including these 'good' things.

the algorithmically driven market made all participants far more equal than they wanted to be; so they decided to destroy it.
