The far right are well-practiced at co-opting and twisting concepts. It’s classic doublespeak.

It’s why you have “Christians” who are staunchly opposed to feeding the hungry, or treating the sick. (See: school lunches.)

It’s why “capitalism” now represents the complete lack of meaningful competition, when that competition is the only thing that ever made capitalism worthwhile in the first place. (See: Microsoft getting away scot-free after being found guilty of illegal, anticompetitive business practices all throughout the 90s.)

It’s why “free speech” proponents are laser-focused on creating new and terrifying mechanisms for censorship. (See: *gestures widely*)

I could go on.

It’s sad how little resistance has been made against this corruption. How easily our natural allies have been turned into our greatest enemies.

I don’t see how it could possibly be unintentional. It’s too bizarre.

I used that briefly 10+ years ago when I got a Fire Stick for like $5. I even installed it on one of my phones back then, since they had a lot of app giveaways and I was dumb.

It was basically “Google Play but worse”. Like the Epic Games Store is to Steam.
