Link: Google DragonflyLink: Apple and Chinese Government against private VPNsSocial justice my eye! The next time you see a video of Google execs crying about elections and how their outcomes might conflict with their "values", know that the values of Google's and Apple's leadership, and probably a good amount of the rank and file employees, simply represent a desire for elitist, single party rule along with capitalism that has a great big soft spot for totalitarianism. The crocodile tears about the Trump election from the Google Execs is as phony as it gets. They are part of the American Stasi. Their bias is blatant and their willingness to enable totalitarianism is obvious. If China can order up a spying search engine and ask phone and computer vendors to spike apps that provide privacy, then every Government can. Oh joy to the world!

This is kind of incoherent, but take out the part where you’re victimized for being a trumpster and the American right is some sort of marginalized group, and I think I’d agree with you.

Not marginalized but subject to a prejudicial bias from a number of companies serving the so called public. If the same protections from discrimination provided for gender, race, age, creed, sexual orientation and disability was extended to political preference, the Facebook, Twitter and Google algorithm designers would be wearing orange like some hapless fundamentalist Christian cake baker. I've heard some defend them saying that its their software, no one is forced to use it, yada, yada, yada. Sound familiar there Boy Scout?

The right wants to discriminate against those they do not agree with (Hobby Lobby, Chickfilla, Cake Guy, etc.) but god help us if they feel discriminated against.

Hobby Lobby, Chick Fil-a and the Little Sisters of the Poor, for example, are called out consistently by the Left for their "atrocious" beliefs and actions. Same should be done for these blatantly biased perveyors of public services. Doesn't mean they can't do it.
