What happened to Zuckerberg? I thought they were the Democrat side, they had to testify in congress about it, and now Musk bought out twitter and the Republicans won the elections. Is this a move to avoid getting facebook and instagram getting killed somehow by twitter and the republican government?

He's an opportunist, always has been, always will be. Opportunists don't have sides: they roll all the times.

He's on the "winning" side. Even Apple (Tim Cook) along with all the other major CEO's are groveling understandably since the upcoming administration could severely damage any of their businesses once in power.

October 7th happened...

The turning point had been last year when Zuckenberg explained to Congress that Administration forced Facebook to manipulate public opinion but he now regrets it.

Maybe you thought wrong.

Are you saying they were pushing the same thing twitter / Musk does? Openly or secretely? Or that he just switched sides when convenient?

I genuinely want to understand this, I'm not american.
