Says Facebook Too Close to ‘Big Government’.
Breitbart: During the 1990s, his rock band conquered the charts with a string of smash hits. Now, acclaimed rock musician Billy Corgan has a new target: social justice warriors and the “narcissists” of social media.
In a no-holds-barred interview with Alternative Nation, Corgan, the frontman for The Smashing Pumpkins, criticised social media for encouraging outrage culture, political tribalism, and slavishness to the state. He also criticised Facebook and other social media companies for being too close to “big government.” more here
Facebook is RUN by an SJW. It’s not a level playing field, as was just evidenced by the article IOTW posted about the anti-Israel and anti-Palestine pages created by an Israeli law school. Bias is censorship when the gatekeeper is the one determining “standards”.
Fu*k Facebook and Suckerberg.
I welcome his rage, no longer content to be a rat in a cage.
“I tried for awhile to read more leftist stuff… but I don’t know… I’m at a point now, I don’t know if if it’s the Salons of the world, I just can’t read it. Because I feel my intelligence is being insulted.”
Should have left out the feels bit. That’s a springboard for the left. It’s been a very long since I couched a criticsm with that word – it’s a hard habit to break. Oh well, baby steps.
In spite of their rage, SJWs are all just rats in a cage.
Wow, I would’ve taken him to be as liberal as the next musician-kudos Billy!
He grew up in Republican DuPage County, Illinois.
The raw materials were all around him; he just needed to wake up and see it.
Welcome to the Matrix, Billy.
I hear ya, RosalindJ. I feel the same way. I think of the left and their media outlets as children telling little stories to other children so they understand who the BAD guys are. Rather than telling them FACTS, and letting them decide for themselves. It’s funny I make a bet with myself guessing how many sentences will be written without saying something against Republicans or Conservatives.
And i am working with these young sjws. Offended very easily and think they know everything. I just want to punch them in the face!
