| Multibillionaires seem to rise as global ruling class for the world. What implications of power acquired by obscene wealth do you envision? |

| France circa 1789. They better watch out because we have seen this before. It’s a shame that us lesser folk continue to allow it but that much money can buy a ton of propaganda. |

| As long as they manage to stay on the leading edge of woke culture they’ll have no problems. The rabble will support them like gods. |

I assume you're talking about the Republican plutocrat class that knows how to rile up the base on culture war issues, but not for a second look at what companies are doing to workers' rights, sound regulatory policy, and sensible tax policy, right? I mean, they've been pulling the strings of the Republican Party since time immemorial. You know, great guys like the Koch Brothers, Sheldon Adelson, and Paul Singer, etc. |

Who Zuckerberg votes for is his business but there is much more reason to believe he leans left than right and it's most likely that his voting history reflects that. I highly doubt he is a registered Republican. He did the right thing in expressing concern over instances where his social media platform was possibly unjustly pressured by sources within our Government to censor specific content that could be politically detrimental to one side or the other. We should be thankful that he has the courage to speak up two months ahead of the election regarding this matter instead of apologizing after the fact. Social media is here to stay and nothing would be less American than allowing it to become the norm for our Government and politicians to have more say in what is and isn't censored than is necessary. Slippery slope! |

' Hollywood is on a downward trajectory with AI and foreign productions being far more engaging. Even Clooney who financed the dethroning of Biden and Bard Pitt could not get a big enough audience to run a movie for more than a week in cinema houses. In one week it will be in streaming. They even had to give back some of their "salary." AI can provide much better productions than Hollywood -- even YouTubers can. The money is not flowing to Hollywood as it once was |
