One of the most powerful tools we have. It's about time we began using it!

Thank God, this should’ve happened like a freaking decade ago. Remember when they did the spotlight on the protestor woman who’s idol was Osama Bin Laden?

but it's not antitrust for censorship or anything period conservatives want you to be censored. the conservative establishment doesn't want uppity populists messing with their profi

we need antitrust lawsuits against Facebook Google Twitter and other big tech companies for meddling in the markets. they are how people share links now. like it or not parlor and gab and other stupid "alternatives" don't mean anything. they are not major social media companies. people share news on facebook. not parlor..

when Facebook censored some media outlets and props up others they are directly messing with the market and causing some news outlets to fail while others succeed.

That's a long way to simply say big social media needs to be classified as a publisher, not a platform.

The left owns and runs all institutions: media, academics, church, Hollywood, publishing, Fortune 1,000 companies, major cities, music, social platforms, and other things.

When Google censors our messages, independents, slight leaning left, and young adults cannot hear our stories, values, and humor.

The right, b/c we own no institutes, see and hear both left and right messaging.

Meddling in the markets? You mean like every MSM news outlet?

It has nothing to do with markets, it has a lot more to do with them having a near monopoly.

If only there was some Third Way that we could take

but why are we announcing it? just do it and then interrupt some regularly scheduled rerun to share the news. frankly, i'm more concerned with the silencing and "disappearing" of conservative voices from sm, esp. this close to election day.

It would have been a whole lot easier a decade ago, too. Now Google and the intelligence apparatus have their fingers in everybody's pies, and Google has a ridiculous amount of money.

I can't imagine how hard it will be to find a judge that can't be blackmailed or bought off now.

Yeah, but we got a Trump. I like our chances.

And with 4 more years we'll have SCOTUS too. I like our chances even better.

Money is a powerful motivator (bribes); but eternal fame for being the judge that broke up Google is also pretty appealing to a lot of judges!

You know whoever that judge is will probably be assassinated

Despite this though, Google is extremely vulnerable, and I’ve got a 3 step plan that will put them out of business.

Maybe Trump's been reading Assange's book. If you read anything, read this chapter.

Google is Not What It Seems

I hope it includes the Youtube aspect of it. Would like to see Amazon up there, I think their abuse of being a monopoly is more egregious than Youtube.

Amazon needs to be on the list for sure.

But Google is a major powerhouse. The biggest, baddest digital advertiser in the game. The number one browser AND search engine AND the number one video platform. They need to be trust busted ages ago. They're so large and corrupt they can impact our republic.

Trust busting was always great and I don't know why they stopped doing it. It was one of the most powerful and useful tools to ensure a healthy free market.

I actually do know why, because globalism and free trade meant that American companies needed to be bigger to compete internationally, meaning that they can't have domestic competition.
