We should be asking; how the #corporatized #healthCareSystem in the US would have handled this for a common work-a-day person?

@JoshuaHolland
oh, oh, pick me, I know. (hand waving)
I'll bet its because that its against the #narrative the #conservative and #GOP are peddling and the #corporatized media only say what they are paid to say by the corp overlords.
Solution: more media outlets breaking free of the overlords and returning to independent journalism with integrity.

@Teri_Kanefield
I keep wondering why is it that only #disinformation and #misinformation is easier to spread.
Why doesn't the good honest valid information flow just as easily.
Maybe its the big #centralized #corporatized #platforms that are the social problem. Your graphic has it right, fire hoses are more damaging to a lawn than a garden hose even thou both water the grass.

@JamesGleick
I think that most thinking people actually thought that all along, its the corp media that was focus on the porn star because it make a better headline.
and besides remember,
all of this is to keep us, and the #corporatized #media, NOT talking about the #conservatives working to gut #SocialSecurity and #medicare.

@steven It didnt start out that way. Its been #corporatized. Now its about #money to the #corporation not protecting the artist. corporations are NOT people.

#ThoughtsForTheDay👩‍💻 @Mastodon@twitter.com, to me, is what #Linux @ myITuniversityLabs, 20yrs ago,(#debian #xubuntu #mxlinux #gnu...) would be like if it was a social network.🆒️ Some people will hear that and think it’s 😱, but I mean it as a compliment. The internet is #corporatized. 🙌💯

@Chronotope now this is something that you don't hear on twitter or fb or any other centralized group; an organization wanting to get smaller, more distributed so it can better server the people.

This should help folks understand the difference between #federated, #democratic services and #corporatized, #authoritarian services.
