Billionaires and the state controlling information is not new - remember William Randolph Hearst? Nothing has changed. Billionaires own broadcasting channels and news outlets, and our freedom of press won't report negative stories about the corporations that advertise during their segments.

Donors fund both political parties; Liberal outlets and politicians aren't the exception. You thought Zuckerberg was a good guy when he aided the Dems' control of the narrative because corruption stops with them. Zuckerberg censored the news by choosing the acceptable stories and managed the fact-checked answers, but he was good then and bad now. How quickly people are radicalized, but rest assured, he'll support the Dems when they have the authority to agree to his demands.

US tech doesn't innovate; they confiscate, and TikTok's unique algorithm has outperformed US sites. X, Facebook, Washington Post, NYT, Google, and other corporate media have a mutually beneficial partnership with our government.

TikTok censors information, but not as strict as other sites, and god forbid we're exposed to US war crimes. The political class banned TikTok to control the narrative (politicians mentioned this countless times), but the main reason was for the tech bros who want access to the innovated algorithm. Hence, a US company must buy TikTok to avoid a ban.

Corporate profit is the reason our government enables our cruel healthcare system, impoverishment, labor exploitation, media disinformation, surveillance tech, and monopolies by stifling competition and social services. We'd have a better quality of life, less crime, educated population, and social cohesion if our politicians worked for us, not capitalists, and we didn't get into this mess because of one corrupt party.

I wish people would notice billionaires control our government (both parties) to maintain our conformity to the capitalist system that serves them. That's their only job!
