Surprised there was no thread about this last week.

The "right-wing/free-market loving" Koch brothers is teaming up with "left-wing/socialist" George Soros and various tech companies to combat online "extremism."

In other words, here comes more overbearing censorship

Shocking, two groups that have a lot of hate speech directed at them, and conspiracy theories surrounding them want to be able to shut down the sharing of speech and ideas. Not shocking at all.

The two groups basically cancel each other out, so I don't see how this "team" is going to work.

The Koch Brothers aren't right wing extremists. They've usually supported ESTABLISHMENT Republicans who more or less are Democrat Lite. Evidence? They HATE Trump.

This is just more evidence of the elitist, Globalist consolidation of wealth and power. These are the guys that own your politicians folks. They work for them. NOT FOR YOU.
