It relates to something called the market place. facebook favours its own platform over competitors.

O the one hamd I sympathise with facebook. on the other hand monopolies are bad things and need smashing.

Like having one rail company called British Rail, or one telecommunications company called BT?
 
I don't use Facebook, but, if I wanted to use Market Place then I would sign up to Facebook. If I want to sell through eBay, Vinted, Etsy etc.. then I would go and sign up to those.

But Meta are operating in the EUD, "European Union Dictatorship", so Brussels are just wanting their cut.
 
Its not really like that at al.
That's called cherry picking and not consistency of thought, but that's the Left for you. If you despise monopolies, then if you had consistency of thought, you wouldn't want one rail monopoly.

So I know what you're saying, let's stick to cherry picking, I want a rail monopoly but meta can't on their platform.

What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander!!
