Do you not consider Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos “big tech”?
Do you consider Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos “Democrats”? They’ll go wherever the wind blows, which right now, is with Republicans. They’re billionaires. They have no loyalty to anyone or anything beyond their mountains of gold.
Yeah, but Democrats somehow manage to juggle gold hoarding and not denying people the right to exist. Facebook has always been a cesspool, but I kinda despised it less when it didn’t pander to transphobes by letting them claim that trans people are mentally ill.
Only one of of those was actively sucking up before he won. The others were hedging their bets.
Since when did democrats make anything more than token platitudes towards going after big tech?
Have you heard of a certain Google antitrust case which would require them to let go of Chrome among other things?
Which isn’t to say that’s enough, but it is something. Certainly better than, say, I don’t know, repealing net neutrality.
As I said, token efforts. Democrats have had control of both chambers of congress and the presidency on more than one occasion, if they wanted to do literally anything, they could have. For fucks sake, they couldn’t even enshrine abortion rights, despite knowing everyone wanted that, and the republicans wanted to do away with women’s rights to anything.
Democrats don’t do shit. Ever. They exist to enrich themselves off corporate and special interests in return for making those interests massive profit. They are not here to help you, and they do not give a shit about you, because you are not their constituent or their concern. They know the case with google isnt going anywhere, which is why they started it. It’s a public relations ploy to convince gullible voters to keep them in power so that they can continue to rape the earth and perpetuate genocide for profit.
And the republicans are all that and worse
Ah, the good old “lesser evil” argument.
“Yeah, my party kills babies, but their party kills a couple more babies, so they are obviously the bad guys here!”
Do you understand how stupid that makes you sound?
Might as well vote for the one that kills more babies because it’s all the same! Right?
I’m not sure if I’m the one sounding stupid here, frankly.
The one glimmer of hope is that this election makes the Dems get their shit together.
Who said anything about voting for republicans? All the dude did was praise one particular pick, and suddenly he’s a nazi. That’s absolutely ridiculous.
