    IOW: We must defend democracy so shut up.

    It only seems like a few weeks ago that American conservatives were calling for tech companies to be broken up and/or legislated against because of their clear and unfair political bias and influence on the political process.

    I'd take all this shit more seriously if people were more willing to go after people on their own side.

    No, that’s not what happened. American conservatives were calling on tech companies to stop their censorship activities which were imposed upon them by the United States of government.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I've seen people right here say they should be legislated against because of bias.

      I was only joking

        No, you’ve seen some calls for antitrust laws to be more vigorously upheld…

            Someone needs to tell the EU that he only kowtows to China’s and Turkey’s censorship demands.
