If it doesn't exist it should...

@sun@shitposter.world @bonifartius@qoto.org Did owning Twitter really make a differenceI definitely think it moved the needle.
Think of it as a super massive, super targeted ad spend. All it needed to do was make sure those likely to vote for Trump did.

As far as I can tell Cenk is the only one who's calling out their bullshit.
But they won't listen.

Why would journalists go to Fedi if all it meant was that they could only be heard by the servers the admins liked?
Mass defederations and fostering a uptight atmosphere chased the opportunities away.
FediBlock gave Musk all the power he needed.

I'd still say Skibidi Biden takes the cake

What did you think the screws were for?

Before industrial byte farming it was hard to get enough bits to go around...

Even if you think he's usually full of shit, this is a pretty good point. Those with large sums of wealth can manufacture self-organizing psyops by shifting around various arbitrary limitations.

I'm sure brands and regime propagandists will love this!

we allowed anti-vaxxers to dictate public safety measures and make their choice our choice.This is such a disturbing inversion of reality.
What did "anti-vaxxers" do other than eventually be 'permitted' to participate in public life after being designated as second-class citizens in many countries?If our governments hadn’t caved, we could’ve stopped covid before all the mutations.It's funny how the issue isn't even masking or particular reforms.

People underestimate how little it would take for them to push for other obscene trespasses. Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscienceC.S. Lewis

I'm all for plentiful green energy, but this seems like a high opportunity cost for little gain.
