Bringing up an example of something that your disfavored party does, is not a counter argument to the idea that the government pressured companies.

In fact it actually proves the point, you just also thing the other party infringed on people's rights as well.

the discussion is not about that idea of yours, and "the government" is not a monolithic entity

the discussion was around whether Facebook felt there was an implied threat there credible enough to act on it out of fear

obviously, they didn't, and wouldn't, because such a threat would have required that Biden control the GOP Congress somehow, which he didn't
