‘Misinformation’ Fines Are The Norm Under Corporate Governance
Whereas all of these businesses serve practical purposes in helping people find dates, express themselves, or be entertained, there is a massive void waiting to be filled by conservative alternatives to institutions without which society cannot function. Notably, where are the conservative alternatives to banking that won t penalize you for having the wrong opinions? Why are there so few alternatives to corporate health insurance that won t force you to provide forms of birth control that violate your religious beliefs?
To protect the financial security and the political rights of the American people, to ensure that they are not taken advantage of by wealthy and influential transnational corporations that seek to control them, they need to be presented with the ability to opt out of giving their money to companies and people that hate them and their worldview.
Companies like PayPal are going to continue advancing their worldview upon their customers. They will not stop unless they are made to stop. The only way to make them stop is to use government power to prevent them from preying on their users or depriving them of business. Governmental regulation is likely to be a temporary solution to what increasingly appears to be a permanent problem, so to give people the freedom they seek and deserve, a parallel economy with alternatives to legacy institutions uninhibited by leftwing corporate interests must become ascendant.
I find this approach disturbing. It envisions, as a sort of last resort, the growth of an alternative right-wing commercial world. If you don’t buy into woke-world, you’re supposed to use a different bank, watch different movies, and presumably drink that special coffee rather than Starbucks.
This is insanity. Rather, we should be able to bank where we bank and vote and speak however the hell we want. We need laws to make it illegal for banks, and coffee shops, and the rest of them to serve all of us on an equal footing. This probably shows the limits of libertarianism, so there it is.
