WARNING: Reader discretion advised.
Trump’s billionaire allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch.
They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets.
They control the AI you're asking for answers, the algorithms feeding you content, your personal data you've given up for access, and the devices you rely on.
The news and your privacy are now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.
This is all by design.

In 2016, my then-87YO father voted in his last election, for Hillary. He had prev. voted for every GOP candidate since Eisenhower. He didn’t like her at all, but saw right thru Trump. I’ll never understand how my slightly senile dad was smarter than the 2024 electorate.
@arpadokay Again, don't think it's that simple. Italy has a robust printing export industry that wasn't built on that model. Even China, where this would apply, is a country of 1.4 billion, which affords an economy of scale irrespective of predatory pricing via cheaper wages, etc.
