You're kidding me, right? These guys
love Trump, Trump is the best thing that ever happened to them. Profits are through the roof, regulations are down, consolidations are happening faster than ever, and shareholders' portfolios are up, up, up.
11,000-point DJIA dive in February? Who gives a shit! It's all black box trading and monopoly money, institutional shareholders bought those same stocks right back at bargain bin prices at the end of the day just to sell them the nanosecond the bell rung. What are we up to now in global quantitative easing, six trillion? The Dow Jones is right back up to 26,000 now all the same, never mind how 40 million Americans are still out of work with no return to it in sight, staring down the barrel of a second wave of lockdowns and quarantines. The only people who got hit by this "financial crisis" were those who lost parts or all of their retirement funds for the second time in a decade while billionaires' worth increased by almost a half-trillion dollars
again.
Never mind not even 5% of the four-and-a-half-trillion dollar stimulus package actually went into the pockets of Americans that need it, and of those of us who did it wasn't even enough to cover a month of rent and utilities, and that other 95% went to major corporations and the wealthy who proceeded to screw American workers
anyways.
Not one goddamned MAGA hat-wearing, Dixie flag-waving, slack-jawed, sister-fucking bucktoothed hillbilly yokel who ever did or ever would post on r/The_Donald, will love Trump a tenth as much as the Versace-wearing, Tesla-driving, kobucha-sipping, coke-snorting cocksuckers sitting in newsrooms and board rooms on both coasts cackling maniacally to themselves watching stock portfolios and ratings analytics on one monitor while typing up the day's "orange man bad" talking points for distribution to subsidiaries on the other.
Wanna see the most honest two minutes of broadcast television in the last four years? It's right here, starting at 17:45.
This Reddit, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Gab, BitChute, Minds, Parler, Patreon, PayPal shit, it's fuckin' kayfabe, right along with the beyond ludicrous notion the contemporary news media is in any way, shape, or form genuinely anti-Trump. If you think it's a left-right issue, you're as much a useful idiot as the spergs on the left cheering it. This left-right shit is consent manufacture, nothing more and nothing less. No, Trump is simply a rallying cry for what Silicon Valley and the big four media companies started during the Obama regime: the wholesale takeover and corporatization of speech on the internet.
And boy howdy, is it one hell of a rallying cry. Never in my life would I have expected liberals to go full fucking Randroid in defense of big tech and media. Liberals are hands-down some of the most reliably stupid motherfuckers on the planet, but what's happened in the past four years is so far above and beyond the call of duty that I'm honestly kind of impressed at the level of Kafkaesque hell wrought since.
This shit isn't happening because sites are "alt-right" or because some "promote hate speech", it's because it's
competition and
uncontrolled venues for the exchange of information. These media assholes don't want Wikileaks for example taken down because "muh Russia" or what the fuck ever, it's because they want to be able to deep-six mass releases of damaging information like they did the Panama Papers and Afghanistan Papers, and what's going on right now with DDoSecrets/Blue Leak. It's to stop something like the Snowden files from ever happening again.
