Kyle brings up some good points from a progressive perspective criticizing the big tech cartel for banning Trump, like how they let dictators use their platforms without consequence, and how they suppress left-wingers too. It's just Silicon Valley elites trying to manipulate public discourse so they can help politicians that won't regulate them.

What is BigTech afraid of? Are they worried that Trump will do something like lock up a bunch of CEOs and others? I hope he does. The companies can carry on just fine without the CCP-lovers at the top.

It's less that they're afraid, and more that they know they can manipulate public discourse to their favor. They want to elect big business Democrats who won't regulate them, but will regulate their competitors.

I hope Trump does too, I ain't a Trump supporter (I voted third party), but I'd support him in that — I'd support anyone in that. It's about time we held the traitors accountable. It won't be done, but we can always hope.

Locking some people up, or worse, is the only way out of this mess we're in.

Yeah, all the people who've committed crimes should go to prison, and new laws should be written to make sure people who deserve to go to prison actually do.
