What a ridiculous argument. They’re not saying big tech companies are necessarily as abusive as those other organisations, they’re saying people might want to avoid them in the same way.
By contrast your comment, intentionally or otherwise, suggests the only valid reason to avoid interacting with an organisation is if you were literally raped by them. Now that is fucked up.
Which group, institution or ideology specifically are you talking about? Genuinely curious. Cause I can’t think of any that are the same or worse than fb/google/etc. That are supported here. Doesn’t mean they don’t exist, ofc, I’m just unaware, hence the question, would you give me some examples?
They were warned multiple times that their platform was being used to fan the flames of a genocide, yet they did nothing. And their algorithm is designed to spread whatever gets the most engagement, which is usually hateful things.

Meta is partially responsible for genocide, so it’s not actually that much of a stretch, honestly.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Do you not understand how metaphors work? Nothing is being “compared” here. Keep looking for things to be upset about.
This is actually a simile, not a metaphor. And a simile is a type of comparison .
A simile is a type of metaphor. All similes are metaphors, but not vice versa.
