Here’s the real message from this:
1. Public debate has moved completely to online, and social media is where about 99.9% of it happens.
2. Since the First Amendment prevents government from interfering with free speech, the job has been outsourced to the Democrat MAGMA (Microsoft, Apple, Google, Meta, and Amazon).
3. As private companies they can censor and do whatever they want without regard to the First Amendment.
4. To encourage and reward them for doing whatever the government asks, the MAGMA coalition is given special treatment, little regulatory oversight, and basically a free hand.
This is what’s going on in China, just as it is in the US. The CCP doesn’t want a certain feature that permits free speech, so it’s partner, Apple, disables it - problem solved. Everyone wins - except the poor forgotten citizen.
yep fascism
ccp still uses the communist label but it has gone fascist
and is the model for worldwide fascism
