Bureaucracy: we must control it, and if we can’t we will make it illegal

With Starlink, they will have to make it illegal. If they are going to even look at seizing it, Elon can get make it crash (digitally and literally.)

He'll eventually fall in line with whatever they want because he wants Starship to get approvals and be a success. Once he's tucked away safely in his bunker under Olympus Mons on Mars, he'll consider crashing Starlink.

Ironically this is a good argument for banning prostitution because of STD spread and traffickers.

And there it is…

I knew this would go one of two ways. Either:

(A) the government would finally sanction Twitter despite not doing so until someone non-woke is running it, so that they can maintain the status quo of banning conservative voices,

or

(B) leftists, including all corporate and most celebrity/bluecheck accounts would take a mass exodus to another copycat social media site, thus rendering Twitter socially and culturally “irrelevant”.

Looks like they are gonna try A.

B is not doable.

The clowns need the spectators more than the spectators need the clowns.

They've done it successfully on a smaller scale before. See the NeoGAF to Resetera migration.

Nah, it's not a sanction. Twitter is a CIA tool and they aren't about to share their toys.

The liberal media opposed Trump when he tried to ban tiktok and he finally backed down.

Now they support Democrats trying to ban Musk from taking over tiktok because they're scared he might actually allow free speech.

Musk is trying to buy twatter, not Chinese Spying App.

So they're basically all but admitting twitter exists as a channel for pushing state propaganda.

What and you expect the RINOs to come in and actually doing anything? Idiots like McCarthy and McConnell have already said they dont plan to do anything about Biden or the Dems when they get in, but they are already planing to send more money to Ukraine and drag out that war endlessly.

If the government can force the richest man in the world to kneel, what chance do the little people have?
