Well, with the invasion of Ukraine, they blocked Russian access to their platforms.

When the MAGA heads had their insurrection on January 6th, they deplatformed Trump.

Both times, things got better right away.

We might actually figure out a solution to this social media mess once the shooting stops - there will certainly be the public appetite and will for it.
