Idk about this suit but let's not forget how Facebook did actually in fact get a fascist elected president.

    He was treated like a joke candidate by the Democrats at the time. Facebook didn't get him elected, Hillary ran a weak campaign and didn't take the threat seriously. He used FB for fundraising and she could've done the same thing if she wanted to.
