Why are y'all so scared only when it's the government using the companies to influence people. The companies do it themselves already and in a much more insidious way than any government likely will.

You are already being fed propaganda and having your interactions controlled and monitored in order for the people in power to gain more power and stay in power indefinitely. This is already almost 1984. It's just not politicians in power, it's capitalists.

How is that better? At least we can, in theory, elect different politicians. With capitalists, that doesn't exist even in theory.
