Fortunately, there’ve been successful Monopoly destroying actions in the past. When money power/ capitalists get too much influence political power strikes back.

Because it happened in the past as well. And the big tech companies were split, cut down, and destroyed. Big tech was not IT in the past but other “advanced technologies” at their time.

The past is a good reference to learn from, but it can’t be a blueprint for the present. There are different circumstances between then and now which complicate things, like the aforementioned big money in politics.

money and political power is the same thing now.

It is in USA, but not in EU and China.
So what you say is true for USA, but not for the world.

There are two genres of capitalist optimism.

one is the “it’s going to be different this time baby I swear” and the other is “prayer to an angry god”. This piece obviously is of the former category.
