The owners don't care.

They have the power and no one can do anything about it. They know that now and will continue to do it based on the administration that is in office.

Facebook is a public company with a Board of Directors, I assure you. They care.

They, along with the leftist media, would really care if Trump supported a new, conservative social media and news network. He does not have the money to build one by himself but there may be others who may invest. I don't think they would agree with Trump in charge though.

Actually, they were given the power by everyone who uses those platforms.

And although I don't see it happening, it could, in theory, be taken away as well.

I do like Facebook for keeping up with friends. I didn't expect it to go from 80/20 to 20/80 when I started following politics. I'm recalibrating but it's going slow.

What do you mean "recalibrating" and how do you do it.

Oh I do. People these days seem to have the attention span of a housefly. Twitter and it's limited characters is tailor made for that.
