MODERATORS
Beats the hell out of the Republicans deciding it. The Pandemic outed them.
Republicans certainly seem a bit insane but I don't see how I don't see how that means we should be ok with big business being arbiters of truth, with no oversight.
Business will further the interests of their shareholders, democrat, republican or not. Giving them carte blanche to "create truth" is giving the shareholders that power, most of which is controlled by a few investment banks. They do not care about us or societal problems.
