Lesser of two evils has never gotten us anything but evil.
this one isn't even a lesser evil
I would agree, I'm just pointing out the logical flaw.
In fact I'd argue Zuckerberg is worse, if only because he already owns so much of the digital landscape and most people use FB to federate with other stuff.
Elon is meme'd as being the big bad here but in reality he's running his first website/social media company against a guy who essentially developed the modern model and already owns another massive SM site as well as his new Twitter clone experiment in addition to the foundational website he still possesses.
Greater of two evils also doesn't seem very successful.
