He died of an overdose

Nice try Nazi. Next you'll tell me Floyd didn't die from a Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique delivered by Chauvin.

To quote a 4chan post:

Your life will become a lot easier when you accept that 95% at minimum are brainless NPCs, meat puppets, philosophical zombies, hylics, natural slaves. Until you accept this you will struggle endlessly trying to change normies stuck within the media-education-politics conditioning matrix

True. Technically, Chromium's current engine, Blink, is a fork of WebKit which itself was originally forked from KHTML/KJS.

Alphabet does given them something like 400m a year and like you said, effectively owns Mozilla, but when I think "controlled opposition" I think like Fox News. But the existence of Mozilla, and their current situation, just seems like an artifact of of the history of browser development. Google also gives a lot of money to various software organizations, so outside funding them what's the controlled opposition angle exactly?

It prevents google from arbitrarily deciding "web standards" on it's own.

Anyone who "buys chrome" would most likely follow a similar agenda. If you can base your browser on Chromium, free of cost, as most do, and are not interested in dictating web standards, what incentive do you have to "buy chrome" (which is to say buy the marketshare of chrome users who use Chrome because Chrome)?

Google most certainly has other means of dictating web standards, simply by being Google.

I fail to see the scenario in which Chrome is purchased by a benevolent entity which engages in less shitty practices and/or one where Google doesn't just upstreams their bullshit in to chromium itself . I don’t really understand how this would work in practice - Google's Ad business obviously calls the shots, and that's a bad thing for the web, but I'm not sure how we get from here to there.

Google controls Chromium

Yes, Google is asshoe, but realistically what does "selling chrome" look like? And who would maintain it? There aren't that many orgs that can, so it would likely be someone like MSFT, which is also asshoe. Who will "buy chrome" who also isn't interested in shoving ads down your face? That Chromium is open source means that google would likely retain control of it regardless, same as linus is in control of linux.

Firefox is controlled opposition.

Mozilla is pozzed, but I wouldn't call them "controlled opposition"?

Google being declared a monopoly is great.

Forcing them to sell chrome is fucking stupid. Chromium, which is the basis of chrome, is already open source. Chrome is chromium with Google telemetry. Pretty much all browsers outside Firefox (and niche browsers that have little user base) are based on chromium. This effectively does nothing.

Separate YouTube or their ad platform

My libtard friend insists that's because the VP has no power and Kamala's sole purpose was to get Biden elected. When I pointed out that both Biden and Kamala said that wasn't true and she was an active part of the administration, his little pea brain came up with the "they're both lying".

I of course followed up with, why would lying benefit them at all. He had no real answer other than "voters are unsophisticated". Which didn't really make any since and he refused to elaborate.

Amusingly enough, his initial reaction to the election was "welp guess Trump won" because the media was too busy shidding their pants in shock to pen articles to tell him how he should feel. Now he's big mad and thinks the Republicans cheated.

I fucking hate these NPC hylic niggercattle so much it's unreal.
