ALL of the videos that are extremely popular of him have been hidden from search results. I just typed in "Trump" in the search bar and EVERY result was either from MSNBC, CNN, or ABC with a Negative spin in the title.

It's not just algorithmic changes. They attempt to dampen speech by restricting funds to the creators that publish this content.

Mark Dice, Paul Joseph Watson, etc, all have their videos demonetized the moment they're uploaded.

Exercizing their freedom of association. If you don’t like it build a competitor

So...segregation. Not surprising you would propose something like that.

Free market options are now “segregation”?

You want to expand on this or are you just being a dipshit?

Some of these companies are violating their own terms of service (Facebook).

That's illegal actually.

You couldn’t make the connection? I’m sure you aren’t supportive of a restaraunt owner choosing to only freely associate in his restaraunt with whites. Or a baker to only freely associate with heterosexuals.

If you were consistent, you would be. I doubt your consistency. Still, your posting of support for segregation from conservatives is not surprising. Any other questions?

Agreed.

except the mammoth companies will continue to buy up all the smaller competitors until they are broken up by the government

You like to have it both ways, don't you?

A competitor was built. It's called Gab.

It was then banned on the Google Play and Apple App Store.

Hosting providers then started banning Gab.

Payment processors like PayPal and Stripe then started dropping Gab, effectively crippling their income.

All because of politics.

There is no "open market". If you build a competing platform, it will be banned from app platforms, web hosts, and payment processors.

He probably thought he was talking to a free-market conservative. Didn't realize you were the type to tell businesses how to behave.

I didn’t make a comment either way about my personal views. Reading comprehension isn’t your strong point. No surprise you like segregation...you are a virulent racist.

What Youtube did was change their algorithm to have "Trump" as news which means any searches for "Trump" will bring up "accredited" news sources instead of channels by individuals like Mark Dice or whoever.

I know you were trying to make a jab at a liberal at the expense of your own ideology. Please learn to think more efficiently. Then you won't end up chasing your tail

Yeah no shite. Republicans pushed corporatist polices for decades and now you have to deal with the consequences of giving them so much power over our lives. Delicious irony.

So now being a conservative is a protected class?

I know you’re not this dumb.
