“I often advocate that we as conservatives need to get the hell off of these big tech platforms - and start using Linux. Linux on our computers, and Linux on our cell phones.

We can absolutely, on our own, without big beloved government, defeat these big tech companies.”

You have no idea of what you are talking about.

Before I retired, I installed/ran multiple Linux servers at my old company. I have been using Linux since the mid/late 90’s (long before it was cool).

While Linux helped break Microsoft’s monopoly they are still dominate in business and on the desktop and that will not change in our lifetime.

It certainly won’t change the media/information monopoly that is controlled by leftists oligarchs.

Anti-Trust is a legitimate tool to restore balance to the economy and media.

The Bud Lighting has not yet occurred, they still have immunity. When the Bud Lighting happens, the domination will end.

Twotone: "Once again...how are these people to be stopped?"

The big tech companies are the most deserving of a Bud Lighting, and the least to receive it.(unfortunately) I really wish I had the power to get the Bud Lighting started, but alas I do not. We cannot vote our way out of these problems. The only way out is to activist our way out.

I hope you both have a good day and good week.
