The year is 2032. The crowd is gathering for God Emperor Trump's birthday parede. Not voluntarily, but at least they get beer and a desiccated burger. The organizers are doing their best again to make the Emperor presentable. The orange makeup covers a lot, and the smell has been gone for a couple of years now. Still, their hearts tremble when the handwaving mechanism kicks in. People need to see Dear Leader strong, to forget the war that has been ravaging the Mid-Western states. The parede ends well, no body parts have been flung this year. People shuffle back to their buses, savoring the rare taste of beer in their mouth. Many of them take the burger in their pockets back to their kids in the barrack. It will be a good day for them too! Long live the Emperor!

Billionaires aren't compatible with life. They are economic black holes who increase scarcity, uncertainty, entropy, and isolation. In a different verbiage, they are demons.
Without the Senate majority no impeachment will go through.
Nationalize AI infrastructure then. If it is a security risk for whole nations it should not be in the hands of private companies. Along with search, internet infrastructure, social media. Make the state own them, but decentralize control over them to many organizations.
How about death penalty to Putin-supporting traitors to the West?
instead of shutting down bot farms, entire countries, Russia, China, Saudi A, Israel, etc should be disconnected from the global internet. It has very little economic benefit to have them online and a huge political downside of easy manipulation. It is much easier to shut down and prosecute bot farms when they are hosted on Western soil. Then we just have to actually prosecute them, even if they are trillion dollar companies like Twitter.
With a lot of money behind them, therefore dangerous.
It is our job to let him know where he's transgressing boundaries, like in the case of the bills mentioned. Call your MP, send them emails and paper mails. He is a corporatist, but at least seems to want to not sell us out to the USA like PP would. That's the first priority in these times. Once the USA falls into civil war, we may reconsider who should lead Canada.
I can relate to this. A movie asks for suspension of disbelief, and I am happy to grant that. But then it has to present a coherent world for which I suspended my disbelief. If it doesn't then I wasted my suspended disbelief and that's annoying.
