Go ahead and speak your mind on Facebook...They will pressure your boss to fire you...their business their rules right?

Want to hold peacefully assemble? Sure the Govt will give you the permit...Then non-profit Soros funded violent groups may bash your head in and smash your car

Have a right leaning channel reporting the news the leftists media wont? well YouTube will just Demonetize your videos and hide them in the search...Their site their rules right?

Facebook and Twitter will also ban you after you are a target of a flagging campaign..Their site their rules right?

Major corporations have fired people simply for saying something Right leaning at the "Water cooler"...Their business their rules right?

Private Universities hire radical Leftists professors that will fail the Right leaning students and OPENLY denounce the White race...Their school their rules right?

Google will bury articles telling the truth while propping up Leftists propaganda news sites...their company their rules right?

Firefox just sold out to Soros to filter out "Fake news"...Their company their rules

We now have commercials that barely mention the product in what looks like a Leftists PSA

Hollywood actors encouraging people to punch Right and call for Trumps assassination..and never even get in trouble

this goes on and on and on

Wait till Google starts editing everybody's Gmail...Hey...Their site their rules
Wait till you tube just deletes everything Right leaning
Wait till Facebook and Twitter do the same and use a Leftist judge to shut down any competition
Wait until ISPs cancel your service for "Hate activities" and that was your only access to the internet...Their company their rules

This is just what the private companies are doing and can do all to help their choice of a Govt get elected...If you think this is Tyranny and oppression...Just wait till the Govt they want grabs power

It's going to be really interesting when Zuckerberg runs for President.

more likely scenario
having access to such power without distraction of a publicly accessible link

We've seen fascism, nazism, Peronism, communism of various stripes. I don't think the world has ever seen something like this: it's not the information held about us by the government, but what we have voluntarily turned over to Google and Facebook that threatens us with tyranny. The people with power over us are pimply-faced twenty somethings with no understanding of history, politics, philosophy, or human nature. They do not see how they could possibly be or do evil.

It doesn't look good. Maybe we should stop praying for grandchildren.

This thread is very relevant, and the OP is very insightful for posting those points.

The very Internet that allows us to post our views here in Sig Forum , has also become the worlds biggest propaganda machine.

Think about this: Soon, there will be a generation of people, who have never lived without the Internet.
