Sorry, was that Twitter? Or Facebook?

It's kinda hard to argue it's a monopoly when I can't figure out which one you're referring to and you're saying "Twitter and Facebook".

Meanwhile, this is why the USPS isn't a great comparison: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Express_Statutes

If the person you responded to had said "monopoly," your comment would only be pedantic (and maybe bad faith), but they didn't say that - it's easy to argue with a straw man. Don't demean yourself.
