Luongo embraces "inner fascist", whitewashes Zuckerberg! - [MINISTRY]
So Luongo, ever in search of a contrarian headline to bait his clicks with, again embraces his inner fascist, whitewashing FaceBook's Zuckerberg, whilst justifying "rando bans - as long as they're 'fair' bannings": "But, Zuckerberg is a pawn. He’s neither the problem nor the solution. Soros is the problem and we have to remember this at all times. While being banned from Twitter or Facebook for stupid reasons is unfair, so what." Peak Facebook, Peak Soros, Or Just Peak Globalism? https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/peak-facebook-peak-soro-or-just-peak-... The anti-Soros thesis is reasonably solid, but assisting Zuckerberg's future USA presidential election campaign (just not in 2020) is insanity personified. Luongo's error is evidenced in the following words: "Life isn’t fair, but it doesn’t mean we hand an already corrupt, incompetent and failing government more power to control the content we have access to." Which are prima facie words which ought, in principle, be supported, yet in the context Luongo uses them, misses the fundamental abuse of power in play by the Silicon Valley behemoths - they claim "carrier" status, then go about banning those with political views "which are not sanctioned on the platform"; they wants to have their cake and eat it too - being able to capriciously ban users, accounts, and those with literally millions of followers, whilst at the same time being not held accountable for the content on their platforms, and in the face of their goverment supported monopoly positions. Luongo claims that FaceBook (et al) are "amoral", which ignores the extraordinarily partisan bannings and censorship which they conduct. At least Luongo admits that the "freedom of political debate" on FaceBook is an illusion: "Wall St. is amoral. They aren’t ideologues like Soros. They go where the money is. And the money is still in a version of Facebook that allows the illusion of political debate." Fundamentally we must engage meat space, inventing a pathway to transition the sheeple to actual "free communication" platforms.
