Why the Left Targets Big Tech

RUSH: …this story is in Politico: “How a Liberal Think Tank Is Driving 2020 Dems to Crack Down on Big Tech.” There’s a think tank out there thinking that Big Tech needs to be regulated. Do you know what it is? I’ll tell you what it is. They hate Big Tech because Trump won! Their hatred for Trump is so overwhelming, they’re blaming Big Tech for not stopping Trump! Then they got this Cambridge Analytica scandal that happened supposedly at Facebook. So Facebook and the rest of Big Tech need to be punished now, because Trump got elected.

Instead of realizing that Big Tech is dying to help them! Big Tech is dying to beat Donald Trump next. Big Tech is dying to get rid of conservatives and conservatism anywhere they can in their platforms. Instead, we get: “The presidential race and rising anger at Silicon Valley’s power are giving new lift to the Open Markets Institute’s crusade against online monopolies.” I’m wondering if I ought to hope these people succeed! They’re trying to do great damage to Twitter, great damage to Facebook, and they are poisoned.

They have no idea how good they’ve got it with these tech firms being on their team. But because Trump won and the tech firms were unable to stop it, somehow anger is justified at the tech firms.
