We need to find a way to get thou, but We need Trump’s help by breaking up Google, and Facebook as monopolies.

Freedom of speech is not going to survive when a monopoly has the effective ability and will to shut down any speech it disagrees with. These monopolies must end or they will likely be successful in ending free speech and democracy in this country.

You and I are thinking alike on this. Every oppressive internet monopoly needs to be beaten to death with the force of anti-trust law.

Freedom of speech is not going to survive when a monopoly has the effective ability and will to shut down any speech it disagrees with.

OMG! I keep trying to get this very point across to people, and so many of them say "Well it's different if it is a private company censoring speech. It's only wrong if the government does it!"

No, it matters not how it's done, so long as it's done it's a threat to the nation.

Exactly right. Suppression of Conservative speech is the most significant and dangerous threat this nation is currently facing.

Yes, Trump needs to create as many legal and financial problems for Google, Fascistbook, Twitter, and so forth as he can.

We also need to refuse to use them or their products as much as is possible.
