I wasn’t calling it a free market. I did acknowledge that their were limits of what people could see or say. However, when it comes to out right bans of a website or app, compared to other countries the u.s is the last to ban anything in a direct way. Like, it might fine a website to it’s bankrupsy if it violate’s specific laws, but it won’t typically ban any.
If they sell the platform to an American company, it wouldn’t be Chinese owned. and CHina is (currently) a socialist leaning country, once sold to an American company, it’s gonna be more capitalist focused then it already was. idk why people miss that.
