Threads is pretty much like a dead town square, which tries to use it's bigger brother Instagram, the actual town square, to funnel users toward it.

What pisses me off even more is the fact that you MUST have an Instagram account to pair with your Threads accounts, otherwise it just isn't possible.

Sir, respectfully, you are old enough to remember the equal time rule. You do realize that the #USCongress abolished it after the #SupremeCourt uphelt it? My generation grew up without equal time because of corporate media who wanted this landscape. 

Perhaps a rule requiring corporate outlets to have different political factions get equal prompting in front of users' eyes, so that #YouTube has to allow a #TownSquare and a #MarketplaceOfIdeas ? I want my generation to have their voices heard.
