Don’t spam the same thing in multiple communities like this, it’s poor etiquette and it will get you bans sooner rather than later. Thanks and have a nice day.

Good catch, I got interrupted with work mid post, thats probably the most notable example for sure.
What?
Those examples are after-it-actually-happened reports of the US government actively getting corporations to do what they want.
Get your head out of the sand.
I don’t trust China, but I’m not going to lie to myself to feel better about a political hitjob, even if Bytedance has it’s multinational corporate governance primarily under China.
Kapersky is the example you want to point at for an example of a bad actor corp capturing classified data and sending it to an adversarial government. TikTok just trended anti-political messages for a few different popular politicians and lit a match as a result.
Sorry broke the link somehow, edited and fixed.
Lemmy is an open system in and of itself, and the resultant platform algorithms are open by design, it’s just wishful nonsense to think a state actor can’t ‘surface or suppress’ ideas even here with a little effort.
And even american commercial social media sites don’t really do it for a specific political agenda
Oh my sweet summer child, we’re at the coercion of news media redux for social media…

That was about money, this is about controlling speech.
It was always about butthurt Trump opening the floodgates on the idea of banning it after TikTokers kept attacks on him trending.
It’s brainwashed lunacy to the point of propaganda to continually claim it’s over China using the platform to sway public opinion. They can and do use EVERY platform to do that.
You think even Lemmy is immune?
He had several affairs become public, and that’s what led to the divorce, don’t just make shit up. Qanon is not a reliable source.
This was always a political bag of bullshit. They even had to fund it as a special prosecution with legislation, going so far as to assign a special prosecutor that happened to also be a state Republican legislator.
The gymnastics people keep using to align blame for manslaughter onto Bladwin have slowly become accepted as if it is factual like propaganda is meant to do.
It’s just usb-c power right?
Putting on my rollerblades now.
I mean, they at least offer a blank + clear ANSI and blank + clear ISO keyboard options along side their 14 other keyboard formats.
Slow down there, Zerocool
Biden is the boogeyman ‘they’ have you afraid of. Or maybe you are the ‘they’ trying ro reframe Biden as the boogeyman.
Trump isn’t a boogeyman, he’s an objectively selfish criminal grifter lunatic and theres decades of evidence and receipts to back it up.
Your parents received your ss card after you were born once your SSN was assigned.
You register for the draft when you register to vote.
This whole ‘You guys won’ take is nonsense. We have to work together or WE are all equally fucked.
I’m gonna blow your mind here
That is is not the smart ass revelation that you imagine it should be.
You voted for Biden in 2020 despite his history of supporting wars that kill innocent people. He voted in favor of the Iraq War in 2003. Biden supported the invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 and reasserted the need to stay there in 2002. If you actually cared about war time deaths of innocents that Biden affects, you never would’ve supported him in the first place.
Now, suddenly, a war not supported or instigated by Biden is what causes you to turn against him in an election where the other candidate is openly talking about murdering his opposition out of revenge?
You just hopped on a bandwagon, one that’s been flooded with adversarial political and foreign state sponsors.
I did what you demanded
You did it wrong. Make your own choices and support your own agency of thoughtfulness and objective consideration. Right now, your entire decision tree is quite obviously locked into a repeating loop. If you are relying on others to tell you how to vote, you lost your way before you ever learned the game.
Biden didn’t fund Hamas in Gaza; Biden didn’t direct Hamas to attack Israel; Biden didn’t order the IDF to respond with weapons of war; Biden hasn’t ordered or actively encouraged the Israelis to continue attacking Gaza and killing innocent people, families, and children.
The Israeli Government and their Military is who you should be railing on 24/7 for taking part in what is tantamount genocide of the Palestinians. I know you’re not actually reading most if any of this and I should probably just hit cancel move on, but you’re really leaning in and in the off chance something may spark, might as well try. Instead, you play right into propaganda intending to destabilize the US from within by sowing discontent in an election by putting blame of foreign military actions on an incumbent President trying to thread a needle of politics and diplomacy in an election year amid a foreign country’s genocidal actions against a foreign people.
Getting Trump re-elected may be the single most world-wide destabilizing event that could happen as a result of a strictly US political process. He already tried to dissolve NATO for Putin once.
You want to play politics like it’s 1v1 checkers when it’s really 14,356 games of Chess at the same time, on a timer.
Maybe those expressions had a part in Mozilla’s reversal?
What are you taking a victory lap for exactly?
If anything, a small victory lap is for all those people you sound smug about.
Obama’s first go around felt pretty legit.
You pretty obviously don’t know what you’re talking about, almost every class my children have been in for middle school and high school had the children commit to not using their smartphone and sent home a slip to be signed by parents acknowledging that the phones will be taken away and have to be picked up by a parent if they become a distraction for the student. They include similar language in the school student handbook as well.
This law is just ridiculous authoritative nonsense, being used to score a victory for political marketing purposes.
What action are you trying to imply, exactly?
Sounds like a divisive call for violence and civil war, the exact sort of shit the nuttier conservatives play up when talking about liberals. You aren’t even advocating attacking the definite bad actors in positions of power, you are advocating attacking neighbors.
This even works as the exact sort of propaganda foreign state adversaries would use to stir up unrest to keep the US frozen from the inside, in to reduce our impact on potential global conflicts, ie Ukraine, Taiwan, South Korea, etc.
When all you see are enemies, you’ve embraced the very hate you think you are standing against.
