I stand by what I said and I think you are interpreting my words uncharitably in order to “win” some argument I’m not a part of.

I am not going into a semantic argument with you over whether my exact wordings match whatever you think I said.

I will however say that both theses put forth by the comment I replied to are false. If you read either article you linked they actually support my point, the Hunter Biden news was extremely widely shared on Facebook and only throttled due to suspicions on Facebook’s part that it may have been inorganic. A particular article (but not the news) was blocked on Twitter based on an existing policy, discussion was still allowed and it was definitely widely discussed and shared.
