Explain Obrador? Explain Merkel? Macron?

Face it, American liberals are all alone in their passionate embrace of big tech.

A bit of distance and safety from the MAGA bunch gives you a different perspective, and probably a little more attitude of forgiveness.
You don't seem to understand.

They don't want PRIVATE organizations making these decisions in a democratic country.

But again, liberals are completely isolated from their counterparts elsewhere around the globe.

Or government mostly Democrats using private enterprise as a proxy to do things the government can't constitutionally do.

Absurd statement. So any conservative politician is now to be labelled a "form of Trump"??

I watched one. He sits there sipping his water and answers "I don't know". Doesn't even get a slap on the wrist. Then he goes back to his BAU.

He's rich, smug and arrogant and doesn't seem to care about society as a whole; just what HE can do.

The articles written about him are true; he's no philanthropist like Gates.
They don’t want to slap the wrist that puts big bucks into their pockets..

CNN and AOC aren't going to do that. They just like to flatter themselves by thinking they have that power. AOC is a political porn star.
