Agreed. The irony of it all makes me really wonder: is the yellow vest leadership really that stupid to not know they would be throttled before the elections? No, they are led by expert manipulators that are playing a zerosum game -- if some uneducated person cements their belief that they are being silenced by Facebook unreasonablly that's a win. And if you know the laws you can shrug off the lie.
Welcome to the era of zerosum politics.
