remember, the google and meta things are about advertisng tech.

It’s hurting walmart, kroger, and several others who are- basically- monopolies on their own. (and have many, many in congress paid off.)

I’m not saying any corpo is somehow magically benevolent. No, I’m saying if you stick your hand in a tank full of hungry sharks… yer gonna get bit.

Yeah and my point is that any monopoly is harmful and should be busted, but the trust-busters seem to only care about the ones that affect their rich patrons.

  so we agree. because that’s my point. They’re not breaking up google or meta because it’s good to break up monopolies. They’re breaking them up because the oligarchs told them to.
