in the future, the ministry of truth will be privatized.
the this is what fascism looks like: private industry does the dirty work for politicians to push partisan ends and ideological purity.
such acts would violate the constitution if performed by government, but to achieve them by proxy is perfectly legal and consistent with the idea of free association. so it's a nasty fork. to stop it, you must repudiate your own principles.
this is precisely why having big business align so closely with one political party that there is basically no line between them is so dangerous. this is how your rights get de facto abrogated even if not de jure.
but what's important here is to get the solution correct. the solution is NOT to mandate that private companies act like public utilities. you do not want that. the answer to loss of functional rights is not to take away statutory rights. that way lies tyranny.
the answer is to route around the damage and manipulation. the more they push these forms of censorship and using monstrously regulated/political banking and settlement industry, the more incentive there is for a parallel system to evolve.
if we start making rules about who must serve whom, it eliminates this and leaves us dependent on government, legalism, and future political trends at regulatory agencies. we'll be hostages forever.
it's time to learn to fish, not to squall for a salmon. that's the robust, long term solution. yes, it's a heavier lift now, learning to fish always is.
but then you get to eat forever.
let's make the right choice.
self sufficiency is freedom.
