If company policies like that count as bias, you have a problem XD
Specifically the free market itself is against you XD

Ah, the usual right wing defence of "wait, we didn't mean us!"
It always amuses me that people arguing in favour of social Darwinism etc always seem to be under the assumption that they'll be the ones on top.
Hey if it bothers you just think of threats to kill congressman as two gay people getting married and Twitter as a weddding cake design store
Yes and no. See, the problem there is that the free market principles will go and do whatever supply and demand dictate in order to access the largest overall market. Governments effectively operate as Demand; in order to access their market share, you must provide what they want. As China represents a massive market share with high growth potential, it's inevitable that it will gain tremendous influence over any industry seeking its share.
This is essentially why Conservatives have problems with social media as well; their behavior is a turn-off to the larger market share that Liberals and Progressives represent. In order to keep that larger revenue stream, they'll happily maintain policies that Conservatives don't like.

Basically to the surprise of nobody, China's as powerful as it is because of its capitalism.
quotes
It's not true capitalism, if it's government-mandated. That being said:
Doesn't really matter if it's "true" or not. From a practical standpoint it has the same effect. Getting hung up on the term is just a fallacy at that point.

Right and left are, left to their own devices, equal evils, each willing to go to the exact same lenghts at the slightest chance they get, to achieve results of power amassing that will screw the masses just as much in either case. All the way using dupes from each tendence that have been brainwashed by propaganda into believing their system is the Right and Correct one and will rip each other to bits over it, just for the sake of handlers and influencers who couldn't give less of a shit about them.
The right is sometimes less of a hypocrite about it, but YMMV on whether that counts as 'honesty' or more like an even bigger hubris.
It's fucking literally Spy vs. Spy from MAD Magazine. Who cares if your spy dresses one tone or the other, they're both still just as bad.
The only more or less functional system is one where social pressure more or less forces both tendencies into an equilibrium of sorts, where each counterbalances the other and neither can achieve full power. Because once EITHER OF THEM gets up there, say goodbye, personal liberties. Of course, that balance is ever frail and needs constant surveillance and awareness, and most people utterly lack the latter and fail at the former.

That would generally require government intervention. Specifically, regulation on how businesses can operate. Which is also contrary to free market ideals.

Well, Hololive appears to be doing so without government intervention, as shown in said video.
Yes, but that has to do with public opinion. Greater Demand globally at work on that one XD
Also, good for them.
