ugh. I don't understand how we all became such retardios who think we need Big Ass Big Tech to have a functional, Constitution-abiding government.

literally all they ever did was lobby to allow bajillions of criminals into the country and bribe law enforcement and local governments to look the other way when little kids get snatched and trafficked, or raped and murdered; and on top of that, to have innocent people arrested for stupid shit while those unhinged and dangerous criminals just run around town wreaking havoc on the nation.

that Big Tech is so big to begin with isn't the result of a free market, it is the result of communism. they should have a REDUCED number of federal contracts while WE THE PEOPLE build PEOPLE TECH that protects US and THE CHILDREN.

but people like Larry Ellison and Sam Altman are basically villains who keep trying to sell that overpriced snake oil, even if the cost is just a couple sensitive documents here and there that they can peddle to Israel or Saudi Arabia or China or Russia to then sanction some level of power over the people by direct or indirect means.

this is why open source is everything: it is inspectable. it is governable by people. it can be made better BY us and for much, much cheaper than those greedy giants ever could.

it's almost like we have to bargain for our right to build our government as WE see fit, and silicon valley has everyone by the balls just because of...some sex tapes? or, idk, cause they know what porn our politicians like? and they know which ones like children, but at the same time, they don't report this to the public and they PROTECT PEDOPHILES???

sorry, but like. WHAT IN THE LITERAL FUCK.
