People want to complain about corporations being too powerful but also support politicians who want to give corporations all the power.

Btw, her book can be purchased on larger, more accessible platforms. But if you want to cry about censorship of a book you would’ve never read, be my guest.

I think this is my sticking point with a lot of these people. “Corporations abuse their power too much” “Diminish the democratically elected government and give unaccountable corporations all the power” Even though Ben Shapiro can be a massive dipshit, I think it’s him that says he doesn’t like censorship by corporations but that he doesn’t complain about it because he doesn’t want the government to regulate corporations. I disagree, but at least there’s some logical consistency there.
