I think it undermines the entire reasoning not dealing with the bad actors and reasonably questions what the actual intent is.

Social media companies bad ... laws imposed by government on individuals who aren't the people doing bad things.

That's absurd.

I agree, but it's a response to the first undermining: to a tech industry that insisted it could never be regulated without tyranny while at the exact same time supporting every social evil and tyranny.

"We're not the bad actors!" doesn't cut it when half the people saying it absolutely are.
