corporatism is a plague all over the world.

because America keeps giving money to broadband companies, who promise to improve internet speeds and access… give the money to executives as bonuses, do shit all with speeds or access, and their reward is another dumptruck of money to expand access and speeds… Which they 20 return to 10 and give it all out as executive bonuses again and do fuck all for the customer/citizens

oh, and when municipalities try to run their own broadband, they force them to shut down because its not fair for them to compete with the monopolistic internet companies. 🙄

Gotta have an other to point at.

social media has been twisting itself to protect conservatives and right wing political terrorism since damn near the beginning.

Its where their bread and butter are. Right wing idiots following right wing demagogues spouting right wing bullshit are the ones that dont run adblockers, that click all the ads (Especially if its for merchandise for their chosen political team), and generate disproportionate amounts of money.
