Hate to be a broken record, but Facebook’s role in the Rohingnyan genocide and other similar atrocities across the world shows that the platforms have the capability of destroying any society or even government. There are countless examples of this across the world from all political and religious viewpoints. All it takes are a few bad actors with enough money to spread countless false stories that divide a society to the point where there is mass violence and chaos. We know this because it has literally happened numerous times (again, look at Myanmar). No company should have that power, let alone be able to sell that power to the highest bidder. It's like the electricity company determining who gets how much electricity at any given moment and regulating it down to the outlet... it's insane, but because there are so many old people that don't understand technology, we are beholden to monopolies Link to post Share on other sites

I've also been wondering when they plan on putting some urgency on passing another relief bill, because not having one is only hurting R's right now. I know they've been playing the media game of blaming the Democrats for holding it up, but it takes just seconds to research it and see that it's the GOP *severely* lowballing the bill despite basically every expert saying the bigger the better. Even Trump wanted to go big with it and McConnell said lol no Link to post Share on other sites

I think he’s waiting to see how Georgia plays out, but if he was willing to sacrifice Trump by refusing more relief, he’ll let Americans starve for two years so they can take back the house and keep the Senate in 2022 when we’re still in a recession.
