It amazes me that Classic Xer can turn his own faults around and shove them back at us. But that is always what liars and tyrants do.

High tech is not so heroic to him, but Big Oil, utilities, defense contractors, and agribusiness are closer to being his heroes than are those who innovate in communications and entertainment.  Big Tech allows people to share ideas that he dislikes, so that is the problem. 

Let's look at Koch industries: it has typically bought low-tech businesses that are lucrative but well past prime.  Paper. Oil. Plastics. Minerals. Chemicals (some former DuPont ). Livestock ranching (really, really low-tech). It is not a technological innovator on the cutting edge. One cannot fault it for that, as we all need the stuff that Koch supplies, although there is typically another provider. The objectionable feature of Koch industries is the effort to subordinate the political system to it, one sell-out pol at a time.

Koch is heavily involved in the purchase of the American political system as an owned-and-operated subsidiary. That is scary. Democracy entails representation of voters irrespective of status. Government representing wealth or bureaucratic power? That is feudal if low-tech; fascist if it has the means of modern communication under its thumb. I once saw a proposal of the long-past oil baron H L Hunt suggesting that government represent asset owners only because they alone achieved anything. People like he would be represented.

You're  funny, you have no fucking clue what's going on these days. You are actually talking about yourselves/each other and you are to dumb to figure that out too, Hint..The Democrats just failed to circumvent the American democratic process. I guess that there's still a couple of American's left on the Democratic side these days. You can't see the realignment that has already take place and becoming more complete as we speak. America has already turned on Biden. The Biden/Harris Administration has no other choice than to do or say and try whatever it thinks it needs to keep it's dwindling base of support together at this point. I don't know how low his base of support must go before he is rendered incompetent and incapable and no longer befitting to be President. I know he's done, the majority of the electorate knows that he's done and the only people who haven't figured it out are you guys so to speak. So, what are y'all clinging too? What are y'all going to do when Acirema aka Blue America implodes before your own eye's.
