And this is news how? Time for conservatives to put that entrepreneurial spirit to work and come up with a conservative alternative to social media, just like with Conservapedia to take the place of Wikipedia.
I don’t see where FB and Twitter are tech.
Social “Science” maybe.
And just to show us all that they are giving us a big middle finger at all times, Twitter immediately took down the Malkin video.
He should have done this immediately after the mid terms. Not enough time before November to stop them from giving the rats
a huge advantage,

Is this perception why Trump did not move quickly and decisively to take out the H1B visa program?
Also needs to go after PBS and NPR.
Trump should have done it first term. But he did not have Barr.
These are de facto monopolies.
Time to bust the trusts!
Alex Jones had Laura Loomer on his show yesterday and they were hammering Trump about all the censorship going on with those companies and getting away with it. Quite a coincidence that Trump would make a tweet about it today.
By jove, I think you've got it!
It sounds tyrannical to bust up these companies, whether they are run by leftists are not. De facto monopoly is tyrant talk for I want what you have.
Who are their competitors? There aren’t any
They are electricity? No. They are optional.
How can 4 companies be a monopoly? Mono = one.
The thread directly above this one is about DOJ filing an antitrust suit against Google.

They are not optional for anyone who wants to have a chance of prevailing against the left. If you don’t like a leftist controlled Twitter, finding a substitute is not as easy as, say, finding a substitute brand of cell phone, grocery store, coffee shop, auto tire, etc. We can’t wait another 10 years before a substitute U-Tube becomes sufficiently able to allow us to get our message out.

You want to get technical? OK — they are an oligopoly that is run by people who all think socialist. They are using their economic freedom to destroy economic freedom. As far as conservatives are concerned, the oligopoly is no better than a monopoly.
I support leaving these companies alone and I don’t support “conservatives” who feel it is OK to mess with these businesses.
