I agree with trends toward homogeneity.
Some people are disagreeing because there's "more" choice now because all the differences are non-localized.
Walmart and then Amazon squeezed out local anything stores. I think it's five large media conglomerates squeezed out any local broadcast station with actual local content other than weather and sports. Etc.
And what we have for diversity is largely non-local and often living inside huge corporate walled gardens - look at all the content I can get on YouTube while they decide it's ok to do that, so better not get a "strike!"
This is still an increase in homogeneity. Not to mention a ridiculous consolidation of authoritarian power.
