I’m sick of political censorship. Censorship of conservative information effectively turns a social media site into a full time advertisement for the opposition democrats. The same can be said of mainstream media pumping the progressive democrat or leftist perspective. There is no denying this really is a tangible donation to the Biden/Democrat campaign. Censorship is a free service benefiting a political party and actually has some kind of cash equivalent value.
Are there any corporate donation limits that apply to this kind of election assistance? How should the real dollar value be estimated? How should this dollar value be handled on the corporate books? Perhaps some cash could be donated to the opposing party as compensation. Or shouldn’t there at least be some rebuttal time provided free of charge to the opposing party to balance the campaign value of network or website censorship?
It also occurs to me that publishing a political pol, that is intentionally skewed to suppress the opposition from voting or donating, is effectively itself a no-cost campaign benefit. To make things more fair, maybe laws should be considered to mandate TV coverage of pol results from the opposing party.
Both of the above freebies were lavished on the Democrats in the recent election. I think the dollar value of such campaign assistance should be recognized and an equitable means to level the playing field devised. This might be something courts and legislatures could consider in pending litigation re: various vote counting irregularities.
