Totally agree with all you have posted here. My late father worked for Treasury in a 3-letter agency reviled by most conservatives. He was low-level and subject to the constant bureaucratic BS. It took decades in some cases to bust connected bigs and it was almost always forensic accounting that did it. The timeline insured that the people at the top changed, providing windows of opportunity that could be exploited.
I hope I live long enough to see a truly distributed type of Internet impervious to central control along with enough new, open and privacy-protected platforms to marginalize GoogFBTwit.
It isn’t even just the censorship. Non-political YTers (instruction/entertainment) have had their revenues cut, even with increases in viewers. That is just GoogGreed.
It’s been twenty years. Time for a paradigm change.
Unfortunately for us peasants, the people in the government with the big mouths and larger egos believe that they know better than we do should be allowed to control our lives for personal enrichment when they see an opportunity. They need to know our silence is not consent nor are we submitting ourselves because they allegedly have larger cranial capacity. it’s because we’re too busy working so that they have money to operate and we can hopefully pay our bills.
