    I cannot believe that you believe anything you wrote here. Monopolists
    are not heroes. He's not Elon Musk nor Warren Buffet. He doesn't have
    this kind of cash. He's using Bond villain criminal Arab oil monies, you
    know, the shitheads who provide the safe haven for Hamas leaders to live
    in comfort with huge piles of cash used to buy weapons and generally
    wreak havoc.

    How can this possibly go wrong?

    Trump directly interferred in the marketplace. How can that be bad for consumers?

    In truth, these megamergers must end. The world of Max Headroom is
    merely 10 minutes into the future if we aren't already there.

    Of course not, but as long as we're going to have them, I'd rather they not be leftists.

    You are just going to ignore that massive amount of cash he took from
    the worst of the worst Arab oil sheiks and that their pre-approved spin
    on world news will now creep into American media. CNN is now a
    subsidiary of Al Jazeera.

    Larry Ellison is not in control. He's just the stooge.

    Stop celebrating The Enemy's victory.

    Nice projection. Too bad its been used so often it is yawn-inspiring.

    That was their only real power. Not ideas. Not truth. Just narrative control.

    One of the comments I saw on the exTwitters to a BSNOW talking head bemoaning
    the loss of their cultural hegemony was as hilarious as it was crude:

    "Karma isn't just a whore. She?s a blood-soaked hellbitch with a 12-inch
    strap-on and zero lube, and she's balls-deep in the collective asshole of
    every blue-check leftist propagandist who thought they'd own the culture
    forever."

    That's OK, it'll be Fox's turn soon.

    What goes around, comes around.

    If they turn CNN into Fox News (or even Fox News Lite like NewsNation)
    I'll just quit watching it. I've had no problem ignoring Fox News all
    these years.

    I would have wasted some money subscribing to the CNN app in January
    though, it's on a yearly basis and there's no refund just an option for
    it to not automatically renew. Lately I've had an annoying problem with
    the video/voice sync with it also, much time spent on troubleshooting
    with Roku agents hasn't helped.
