I guess I'm pretty dumb cuz when I hear about the government asking Facebook to censor stuff and they do, sorry, when I hear about the government asking Facebook to kick someone they don't like out of the party because they're saying inconvenient things about the government and they do, it sounds like the government censorship.

FB was doing this on their own during covid, the government simply pointed FB towards content they found concerning w.r.t. public health policy during a global pandemic. FB then made their own calls for their content moderation policy
