Adam Schiff Demands Tech Monopolies Impose Further Censorship On the Dissenters and the Democrat Party's Enemies

Adam Schiff demands Amazon and FaceBook censor even more dissent. This is the government demanding that monopolist corporations impose censorship that the government is -- or was, at least -- forbidden to impose itself.

And the NeverTrump corporate shills will continue existing Muh Corporations Can Do Whatever They Want.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) is pressing Amazon and Facebook to address the spread of COVID-19 misinformation, accusing the tech giants of "directly profiting from the sensationalism of antivaccine misinformation."

"We cannot allow the rapid and dangerous spread of anti-vaccine marketing and misinformation to keep Americans from the valid, factual information they need to protect themselves from this virus," Schiff wrote to the companies in letters shared by his office Thursday.

Schiff's letter is part of an ongoing push from congressional Democrats and the Biden administration for tech giants to accelerate efforts to remove misinformation about vaccines and the coronavirus.

I'd like to point something important out:

A monopoly corporation is the Democrat Party's best friend.

Why? Because the monopoly can and should be broken up or limited by the government. And they know that.

The monopoly, therefore, is always in the situation of having to execute the orders of its Democrat masters, otherwise they will take the leash off the DOJ and impose restrictions on the monopoly.

They have nothing to fear from Republicans -- who are easily bought off with chump-change campaign contributions.

They know that Democrats do not come so cheaply. Especially because Democrats are getting paid off by monied interests through many streams of income.

The Democrats must be paid off with action. Political action.

Censorship and protection for the Democrat Party.

Tolerated monopolies, therefore, are a clear and present danger to liberty-loving conservatives and to the Republic itself. They are tolerated by the Democrat Ruling Class only so long as they serve the Democrat Ruling Class.

They are precariously positioned and they know it. Democrats frequently remind them of how precarious their positions are by occasionally suggesting they might break them up.

Therefore, they do whatever is necessary to keep the Democrat Party appeased.

These illegal monopolies, temporarily and contingently tolerated by the left, are rich and powerful -- and compromised due to their status as barely-tolerated monopolies, and easily commanded by the political left to do the political left's bidding.

As long as these illegal behemoths exist, they will be used by the Ruling Class as a weapon against the people. There is no actual free republic so long as the politically left effectively controls what we can say and hear by controlling these compromised leviathans.

We must act against them. Only when they are brought into proper legal status -- their monopoly status publicly acknowledged and their power and reach suitably limited -- will they no longer be pawns of the left to use against us.

But hey, the GOP and Conservative, Inc. like getting money from them (and Conservative, Inc. really likes lying to readers about taking money from them) so ignore everything in this post. The regime of tolerated and compromised monopolies restricting freedoms of the right by the left will continue indefinitely because Conservative, Inc. bought houses they can't afford without the monthly stipend from Google.

Update: Fascist corporatism is here.
