Inverted totalitarianism: ubiquitous, megaplatforms deciding what we can and can't see, what we can and can't do, and locking us out of nearly everything arbitrarily under the "ooh, they're a company, so they can do whatever they want" mantra. They are the state because they bought and paid for enough politicians, so this "mom & pop shop doesn't have to sell porn"-defense doesn't apply. In The Friends of Voltaire, [Beatrice] Hall wrote the phrase: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" as an illustration of Voltaire's beliefs. - bad ol' Wikipedia. If megaplatforms are allowed to pick and choose writing, they can and will censor anything.
