Roads are neutral, social networks are not. Twitter is run by white supremacist openly trying to stroke racial violence. Facebook moderation favored pro-genocide side before the genocide. And it continues to favor outrage stroking groups.

>Roads are neutral, social networks are not.

The gp's analogy maps better this way:

  roads = ip packet network routing, DNS, telecommunications cabling
  racist conventions/meetups = social media platforms like Facebook

(Yes, people do "hate traffic" but that not's the same as "hating roads". Anyone who has travelled on unpaved dirt roads or gravel trails that make their teeth rattle will appreciate having paved roads. And that appreciation doesn't change even if a lot of KKK racist members also use roads.)
