proceeds to explain how to vote with your wallet, how monopolies wouldn't exist if people were smarter and that nobody needs these things anyway

But you act like I worship them or something. I hate them too, I just think they’re not as important as we make them. Facebook shouldn’t be a public utility because it would still be detrimental to society. People don’t need it. But the internet itself, the wires, the protocols are. They should be as public as roads.
But Twitter? What do you do with that? And should we even care about it? I’ve never even had an account for it ever in its existence.
Edit: honestly, I just don’t think the government should have any control or input to information that is available. And big tech shouldn’t be cozy with them, like TikTok, meta, and the trump admin now. That makes them compromised in my eyes.
Also, again, any source of information that consists of an algorithmic feed beyond date sorting is bad for you. Thats every social media silo.
This is just the same kind of libertarian talking points again. Good job that you don't personally like or use Twitter or Facebook, but big tech is always gonna act in the interest of capitalists and try to create monopolies that control information (at least in The West©).
Not sure what sources of information you like, but I guarantee you they're either very obscure, discredited by propaganda or have similar problems to the social media you hate so much. Social media itself also affects what ordinary people can share and what they can communicate with others around the world.
All you're really doing is responding to the guy yankin' your chain by repeating yourself and saying I misrepresent you when I troll you.
Good job trolling an autistic person who can’t read another person’s intentions. Big winner there. Like the village champ. Lmao
I mean... I wasn't trying to mock you as a person, only your politics.
I wasn't being very direct and constructive, but I was trying to address some of what you were saying, albeit in a sarcastic way. I'm sure you don't love Mark Zuckerberg and worship the free market like my caricature though. I tried to make my tone clear, but I appreciate that it's hard online, especially for autistic people.
