    Social media companies are hyper-sensitive to criticism from elite journalists, such that they will self-impose entirely nonsensical standards in order to placate whoever's whining on a given day. Bad press = bad for their bottom line, but good for censorious, moralizing windbags

        Hopefully Google (and youtube) will be broken up, eventually, by the government. And/or some billionaire out there who actually believes in free speech principles will start an alternative platform, once they see how censor-happy youtube is going. They could make a lot of money!

        Social media companies are hyper-sensitive to threats of being regulated. If elite journalists were to come out in support of breaking up google, then they would find out very quickly how much power google has over the flow of information in today's social media environment

        Here is an excellent video with data demonstrating the pathetic extent to which Youtube goes out of its way to favor major institutional, corporate media companies, while holding independent creators to an insanely unrealistic standard:https://youtu.be/fDqBeXJ8Zx8

        They want to join a Pack of Wolves. But Wolves don't allow sheep into their club, unless they want something to eat.

        Profit-driven media narratives are killing journalism. I agree with you that this model is the best path forward. ⬇️pic.twitter.com/CuFmbWQM9s

        Hack journalist windbags are hyper-sensitive to criticism from people on social media, such that they will go do entirely nonsensical things like accusing Maxine Waters of assaulting them in order to spend the rest of the day whining. Bad press = good for their clout

        They're hypersensitive to the 5th estate, period. If you have a period in your follower account, they fear you. How many adpocalypses now?
