Sargon doesn't give two shits when it's a left-wing group. Please do not lump him in with Kyle. Sargon is utter garbage and a hack.

In my opinion, that's really the only way we're realistically going to be able to battle deplatforming/censorship and the general over-stepping of these giant tech and telecom corporations. I've been saying this ever since Alex Jones got banned, the real way to fight this stuff is by pushing to break up these corporations, or at least STOP them from merging into full-stop monopolies that have a firm grasp on entire industries. Even if we get Net Neutrality re-instated and if Kyle gets his far-reaching wish of regulating them as public utilities (something I've seen nearly no push for aside from Kyle), then we'll still have to deal with this same issue 5-8 years down the line when we have another Republican or corporate Democrat president eventually. We need to go after the root of the problem and it just so happens to tie into why we have massive corruption in Washington and monumental class inequality. Breaking up these corporations is the bare MINIMUM we can do to stop America's oligarchy from infringing on our Internet freedoms and rights even more. 100 years ago, Theodore Roosevelt, a Republican, was praised for taking a firm stance against monopolies and mergers that would only harm the free market. This is definitely a bipartisan way to attack the root problem of all this. Just my opinion.

For about a day, that was around the time when he suddenly did a 180 on his ideology just like HA Goodman right after the 2016 election. They were both never left-wingers to begin with. Someone doesn't just change every single one of their positions instantly like that.

@damagedcortex1415 I think you're generally unaware or uninformed about just how large Facebook, Google, Comcast, Verizon, and especially Amazon actually are nowadays. It's not about how large their primary platforms are, it's about how they keep buying up other industries that expand upon their original focus and niche on the Internet. Amazon just bought an online pharmacy, that's a far-stretch from how it originally operated in the late 90s where it was just considered an online book store. They own Amazon Web Services (AWS) and any developer can tell you that Amazon owns more than half of all online infrastructure on the entire Internet through AWS, maybe more. Think about hypothetically if Goldman Sachs somehow owned half of all physical infrastructure and properties on planet Earth, it would be a HUGE problem. Another example is Google, who used to just be a search engine, but now it reigns over nearly all streaming content on the Internet on Youtube and not to mention it has it's own chunk of online Infrastructure as well and, with Facebook, basically run all online advertising on the Internet. You don't understand, these companies basically OWN the internet at this point. Comcast, Verizon and AT&T are the gatekeepers and Amazon, Google, Facebook, and a very select few others oversee all infrastructure, platforms, and tools on the entirety of the Internet at this point. The problem far exceeds just looking at their social media platforms and how they all have a firm grasp on ALL social media, these corporations grow larger every year and they need to be stopped.

@damagedcortex1415 That's just not true though. If you want to stop Amazon from buying online pharmacies and continuing to sell online infrastructure, it won't affect Amazon.com, the ecommerce site, at all. I'll give you an example of just how absurdly strong Amazon is and WHY Jeff Bezos is the richest man alive. Amazon Web Services sells online infrastructure to Netflix, Reddit, Pinterest, Expedia, Etsy, Airbnb, Autodesk, Adobe, Coursera, Soundcloud, Spotify, Linkdn, Foursquare, Inuit (Quickbooks/Turbotax), Yelp, and Newsweek. ALL those companies basically pay an online form of rent to Amazon for using their infrastructure. Google and Facebook have similar problems, though different from Amazon because they have a gigantic grasp on all advertising online and other areas of the Internet where they dominate through monetary gains. Facebook and Google's main revenue does not even come from their social media applications, it comes from the stuff they do on top of that, where they take a percentage of purchases through advertising revenue all over the web and have now begun to expand past just simple ad revenue as their main income. Facebook bought Oculus Rift a few years back and they buy up new enterprises all the time as does Google. You're not seeing the bigger picture here.

@damagedcortex1415 And if you read my whole comment, you would know I literally talked about Facebook and Google, which are "social media / Search engines".
