From the February 9, 2021 edition of War Room: Pandemic

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: It's not consistent and that's what's also worrisome. Do they pick some groups to spy on or surveil or turn over their private data -- not groups -- we need to know that. I think people -- it's kind of scary Tucker because in this huge octopus that we're facing now of Silicon Valley, traditional media, social media, professional sports, entertainment, Hollywood -- we always thought the corporation or the financial institutions was wary of surveillance or the left because it was afraid of impairment of free-market capitalism. 

But when you start to have the corporate boardroom or the financial institution giving the impression that it might have an ideological basis for some of its investigations, that's pretty scary. And it shows you that wokeness -- if that's the right term, is everywhere now.

...

HANSON: I'm very worried because I think that the average citizen looks around at this panopticon, and every -- use Facebook, do Twitter, turn on the NBA, you know, look at your investments, look at your bank, and it's all now coalescing.
