With Mississippi so low on pretty much every 'good' criteria, I'm not sure racism would be the reason.
Black people don't even have majority representation in the state legislature, so they aren't even running the state.

Its also problematic because not all users are actually people.
The "Every user is equal" model falls apart when I create 10 bot accounts against your single account.

A truly neutral platform would give my posts 10x the reach.

Besides their lobbying, its also pretty much impossible to figure what forms their pages correspond with. If you need to fill out a 1099-MISC you can't because turbotax wants to be helpful and it knows best.
