I miss the days when it seemed everyone on the left was anti-corporate. It should be really freaking obvious why corps having this much power is bad but nooooope
lmfao I remember when being a leftist meant you hated corporations and were scared of the power they could gain.
I remember arguing with some leftists way back then asking them why they want corporations to have this kind of power, isn't it kind of bad? And then they go on about "muh propaganda" and "muh hate speech".
No principles. Blind. Stupid. Short sighted. Pathetic.
Cyberpunk was a warning not fucking instructions, old school lefty here, by today's standards I figure I'm somewhere off the right of the charts, fuck the lot of them
You’ll be fine — all of your opinions are desperately conventional, and your Instagram pictures make money for him (for now). Just don’t think too much and say even less.
He's pointing out that corporations have mutated themselves to adjust to her extremist opinions. He's emphasizing the logical conclusion of what yelling for corporate regulation of speech has come to. Her saying "oh no, the corporations censored trump, they shouldn't do that" is now a right-wing opinion, which 10 years ago should've been a BIPARTISAN opinion.
Normally I would say this brings me some sense of schadenfreude, but all it is is someone finally waking up to the fact that weapons given to those in power wielded against their enemies can also be wielded against you.

A long time ago, before the left controlled corporate utterly.
I'd say it's a bit of a two way street; the corps control the left too.

Remember when they stopped Trump from blocking people because it was a violation of their rights? Feels like forever ago...
Remember when they banned Alex Jones?
Remember how every single sane person warned it was a bad idea and it was only a matter of time before it would be used on you?
Good times.

The tools of oppression... how are they being used to oppress???
She's not waking up, it's a veiled threat to Facebook etc that the MeToo cult will destroy them.
she is, among others, of Polish descent, so perhaps there's something left of it in her brain
lol
So what. What's she gonna do? Tweet sadly?
Knowing her kind, probably try to MeToo threaten/blackmail Zuck.
She's gonna tweet about how this shouldn't happen and it was wrong to do that!
Oh wait, that's a Right Wing (tm) opinion now! BANNED
I wish Zuck would ban her and her type.
