Federalist Publisher: Big Tech Colluding to Destroy Conservative Speech – WBAP News/Talk

Big techs abuse of market power has permitted it to not only destroy their competition but also to silence conservatives, according to The Federalist Publisher Ben Domenech

This is obviously a collusive action on the part of these incredibly powerful entities who are seeking to not just destroy their competition, but effectively to silence people who are supporters of the president online, Domenech told Fox News Fox & Friends on Sunday.

Domenech pointed to Amazon, Google, and Apple in removing Parler from their platforms after the storming of the Capitol Building this week.

You wouldnt want to see, in a capitalist system, cutting off customer bases or undermining them, preventing them from accessing your products, Domenech said. But that really doesnt take on as much power as an argument when youve got control of 99% of the market as you do within Apple and Google controlling the dominant portion of the OS market for phones.

I think people are basically saying, Fine, go build your own phone network, go build your own operating system, go build your own app store, which is, of course, a ridiculous thing to argue, he continued. But its also one of the things I think big tech is going to be doing more and more of in the coming months as they crush not just the president himself, but a lot of his supporters and everything that they run to and every app that they go and find as a substitute for this.

This reeks of Chinese Communist Party strategy, he added.

What youre really seeing here is big tech doing what the Constitution prevents the government from doing: an enforcement of a social standard in America, he said.

Its very akin of what you have in terms of a social credit system in China. Its just that over there, the rules are kind of clear. Here they can change the terms of service whenever they want. None of the standards actually are actually serious. They really come down to, If we dont like you, were going to get rid of you and well find a reason for why.'
