Remember when the left said that multinational corporations were evil and that they shouldn't be allowed to make their own rules as it would exacerbate inequality?
Remember when the right said that businesses should have the right to deny service to whoever they want to?

I would agree with this argument if the standards were applied equally. If lefties got banned from social media for pulling the same shit as us on the right are getting banned for, go for it. When Amazon web services removes an app they don’t like because of the political views of most of its users, that’s the definition of fascism, using authority to suppress opposition.
My argument is that what we have here looks like cronyism.
Government and business should be decoupled.
With all the stress I have been feeling over the situation it's nice to see the situation expressed in these words. I needed the laugh and you have provided it. It's true that this situation is something we dug ourselves into and somehow that humors me.
