When billionaires take control of vital communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

And when those billionaires justify their business motives by citing “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Don't be fooled.

@rbreich Is it only freedom from accountability? Isn't it more they strive for? Freedom from essentially everything? The rule of law? Morals? Social norms? Society? #Musk's mate #Thiel in the past openly followed his dream of being free from any possible boundaries and when he said #democracy and freedom are not compatible, what he meant was that democracy limits the freedom of sociopaths like himself.
