The liberal billionaire founder of Craigslist and left-wing journalism funder Craig Newmark is again spending loads of cash on journalism this time in an effort to defeat President Donald Trump in November.

How the Tech Giants Contributed to the DEM/OBAMA Coup against Trump

The role of the Tech GiantsMasters of the Universe (MotU) -in the coup détat is overlooked. As long as they are in control of the internet the main communication line in our modern society the coup is alive. With this control, handed to them by the Obama administration; huge financial resources; troves of private information on ordinary citizens, politicians, and officials; most revenues coming from abroad, their power cannot be overestimated.
Even a glimpse reveals an enormous contribution by MotU in launching and sustaining the coup. That includes but is not limited to the development of the conspiracy theories purporting to justify the coup: the allegations of Trump-Russia collusion and of Russian interference in the 2016 election. The impact is so pervasive that its many components need to be separated into multiple categories.
Here, only Google, Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft, and Yahoo are considered.
Almost immediately after Trumps inauguration, MotU and more than a hundred other tech corporations converged in opposition to the government.
According to the MSM, they were triggered by the travel ban. Such extreme animus toward the elected administration, combined with extensive knowledge about its members and employees (practically everybody in the tech industry is on Microsoft LinkedIn), intimidated the whole industry against saying or doing anything perceived as beneficial to Trump, including challenging cyber-attribution and social media components of the Russian hoaxes. The climate of fear in the cyber-security community was almost palpable, although not entirely caused by Big Tech.
2. Google and Microsoft put their weight as technological powerhouses behind the DNC contractor CrowdStrike and its fraudulent methodology of cyber incidents attribution.
Google endorsed and propped up CrowdStrike by investing (together with other parties) $300M

I think you have that backwards. Craigslist clamped down on that years ago and backpage took up that mantle till they got shut down. I have only been on craigslist a few times in recent years but don’t remember seeing a dating or adult section listed but maybe they re-added.
Like an old SNL skit about a bank whose only function was to make exact change: "volume".
Does he donate to CNN and MSNBC to pay the salaries of their on-air personalities?
“Never understood how they make money.”
Job and real estate ads.
“...in the early 2000s Craigslist was making $40,000 a day on Bay Area jobs ads alone.”

“Funny, because Craigslist largely destroyed the mothers milk of journalism: classified ads in newspapers.”
that’s exactly correct, though i’d say “ironic” rather than “funny” ... nonetheless, 170 mil is a drop in the bucket compared to the billions craigslist caused newspapers to lose ... not that’s there’s anything wrong with that ...
The only thing we have to do is reform our state education boards, and it will not matter what amount of money they throw at a campaign. Once you teach reason and Americanism properly in the context of world history, it will suck all the money out of the liberals wallets.
I posted somewhere else how I’m sure I am permanently banned on CL. Now I’d like to say I’m equally sure it’s politically motivated.
Why? Because there are a number of Craigslist regulars who are radical leftists who are never banned. The only thing I’ve done to violate TOU (terms of use) is over post. As in 2-3 times a day. Yes I’ve cussed at a few leftists.
So why don’t I deserve banning? Again look at the leftist regulars:
1. They over-post as well, no they FLOOD CL with radical left wing silliness. As in 20 posts a day, day after day. It’s the same people they even admit it.
2. They curse like DRUNKEN SAILORS. Even in their titles they curse, they initiate cursing. I only curse in reply.
3. They break other TOU, FLAGRANTLY. As an a example there is one commie on Los Angeles CL that openly calls for genocide, regularly and repeatedly. He wants communism and call for the execution of “1 percenters”. I’ve complained to Cl that’s it’s allowing violation of international law set forth by the UN. They just allow it and refuse to reply.
It’s happening to others I just know it. There was a strong conservative based in the Phoenix/Las Vegas area. He was regularly DESTROYING leftists , like me one day he found his IP blocked and just vanished. Never posted again.
It’s outright biased infringement of freedom of speech, go and check it out. Look at the radical nonsense that is posted day by day at San Francisco CL and LA Cl.
One thing is for sure, you won’t see any of my hundreds of posts (over several years) as they are ALL flagged.
I have an honest question.
Why are all these entreprenuers always leftwingers.
Still banned.
I’ve sent a letter of complaint to Senator Paul. I understand he has been having similar issues with other Big Tech—thought I’d get a sympathetic ear. We also own a family farm in Ky even though I live in Indiana. I got a standard “response form” but no actual reply yet.
It’s infringement of free speech based on political motives. I just read the forums today and there are still the same leftists cussing out Trump and his “Trumptards” as they call them. One guy even calling for genocide of the rich in Los Angeles. CL never bans them but I’m banned permanently apparently.
Amazingly even though the left attacks capitalism in every way they indignantly scream about Big Tech being private companies and therefore having the right to allow whatever speech they want. The thing is mass media has taken the place of the town square. We have no other way of communicating to the public.
Here is the leftist genocide poster still actively violating UN mandates. Craigslist has been notified by me many times and they allow it but won’t allow me saying Biden is a demented rest home escapee:

“ It’s Time for the 99% to Start Slaughtering the Goddamn Greedy 1% (Time to End the Massive Corruption and Wealth Inequality)

(google map)
Bernie was right about the 1%. It’s time to fight back. Why should they have all the wealth while we work and work and end up with nothing but debt. And you see the choices we had for president. A racist or a retard. The financial system in this country is totally corrupt and unfair. The Rich get Richer and the Poor Get poorer. This is done on purpose so the filthy rich can be in control and continue to crap on the working class.
It’s time for a revolution, it’s time for a new government and system that works for the majority of people not just for the corporations and filthy Goddamn rich”
