Devestiture, or whatever you want to call it, needs to take place in:

Universities
K-12 grade
Media outlets

Government funds should not be paying for an ideology that is sworn to overthrow it. Our universities are 80-90% hard core Leftist. Our government is essentially backing the Communist party at our universities and schools.

That must end. A rough parity in ideological stance should be the goal, and when that parity does not exist, neither does government funding.

Media Outlets serve the public, and during licensing periods they should have to justify how presenting only one side of issues, is serving the public interest.

If they can’t show non-bias in either direction, they should lose their license to operate.

C’mon. You know as well as I do they’ll create bias out of thin air if they want to. The only way without obstructing the first amendment is to dilute their ability to propagandize. A breakup of their holdings has precedent, their own precedent by the way. Many of the Left’s news companies are beholden to common ownership, thus can be brought up for break up.

FWIW I agree with your diversion on education.
