I think what we’re running into here, is that you want to talk about removing capitalism. Which I’m all for, in the context of a functional democracy. Which isn’t the case in the US or anywhere in the world.

Until we know what that looks like, and its parameters you won’t admit how bad nationalising a search engine is without other privately owned alternatives.

I’m all for removing capitalism, but that’s not really my aim in this discussion. I was more interested in the difficulty/value of nationalizing something like a search engine.

and its parameters you won’t admit how bad nationalising a search engine is without other privately owned alternatives.

Given the popularity and successes of NASA, the USPS, NOAA, etc, I think you are being overly pessimistic.

None of those things are direct propaganda tools.

The second they start having to put maga posters into you mailbox and nobody else’s you’ll see it differently.

To you they aren’t, but to the right wing they are.

We are already at risk of that. I don’t see what your point is.
