Well, I think his overall view is precisely that those people did not have the luxury of forestalling this problem, but they are the victims, and the government should step in to try to correct the problem. Not trying to put words in the ot

Is this really your mental model of how the world works? Not to mention that beef with bigtech is bipartisan. But antitrust moves like this are not the preferred tool of the right; coercive type stuff like the legislation in FL and TX is

Unlike with TikTok there is no government in control of American social media the way the Chinese government controls TikTok. Your take is quite facile. And an article attempting to highlight the issue is not comparable to the kinds of subt
