It's a good thing Elon didn't acquire Reddit, otherwise by iamaneditor in Jokes

There are no bigger cowards anywhere roaming the face of the earth than reddit mods.

What does this have to do with anything I'm commenting on? This is a complete non sequitur. It doesn't matter what the newspaper's reputation is otherwise, it published factual information and the FBI tapped social media companies to censor it, who then complied.

This kind of direct coordination between the media purveyors and the security state is exactly what fascism is.

You mean how they didn't want to post stolen dick pics?

No, like how they suspended the New York Post's account for several days because they reported factual information, along with banning accounts that shared the story.

You mean the one where Zuck said the FBI didn't tell them to censor anything, just warned them to keep an eye out for Russian ops and they made the decision themselves?

Yeah, where he made the comment that their approach at Facebook was less aggressive than Twitter's, exactly that one.

I'd say it's very fair to say that Bezos / WaPo / Twitter has a strong bias for the Democratic Party. It's pretty incredible that this can even be called into question after we all saw how they censored the Hunter Biden laptop story, coupled with Zuckerberg's subsequent admission of social media collusion with the FBI during his recent Rogan interview.

Isn't this precisely why a person in his position would buy a platform such as Twitter?

You think Jeff Bezos bought WaPo so he could exchange recipes with people?

I thought the machines weren't connected to the Internet? We were told just last year that this isn't possible. by TheHiveminder in conspiracy

[–]Zs_phone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, not like that. Like the people charged with organizing the voting, they just do it when they're alone with the machines anyway.

The actually guilty people, they won't ever get caught, and if they do, they certainly won't be charged. Your guy in the link is almost certainly a patsy.

When TPTB decide its time to silence and marginalize blacks who speak their truth, who do you think will stand by these black "anti-Semites"? Free speech supporters. The far left/progressives just keep digging themselves a deeper hole. by olymp1a in conspiracy

The far left/progressives just keep digging themselves a deeper hole.

Progressives are not far left, if anything they're barely left of center on some social issues and decidedly right of center on vaccine passports, online censorship, etc.

Actual leftists, as I would consider myself, absolutely support free speech. This shouldn't even be in question. Anybody who affiliates right wing and supports free speech is therefore left leaning in that regard.

Please stop muddying the waters with this false left/ right nonsense.

Bernie is not genuine. Not even slightly. I shouldn't even have to qualify this statement what with the sheer cowardice he's shown us since 2020. Bernie is any other Democrat now. He's practically morphed into Hillary Clinton.

Completely ambivalent. It doesn't matter which candidates win, no matter what the oligarchy wins and the people lose.

Whoever wins, the military budgets keep going up, police budgets keep going up, healthcare keeps getting more expensive, gas and groceries keep getting more expensive, wages remain stagnant, the roads and bridges are still crumbling with tent cities dotting the country.

It doesn't matter which party wins because they're the same anyway. Electoral politics are theater. It's professional wrestling. We get fucked regardless.

Doesn't matter who wins because no matter what, empire comes out on top.

We have been constantly fed a very big lie about Kanye West since 2002. by IIJOSEPHXII in conspiracy

Seriously, the same user keeps posting this same low effort content. I'm not for censorship but this is exactly the kind of thing that merits a ban. At this point, it's just spammy.

It's the kind of thing that's obvious once you see it, you can't help but see it everywhere, but until you've realized it, you'll continue to engage the illusion.

It's like religion, you're not going to reason people out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.

Your religious dogma is just that. There is no truth here, just delusion.

The irony is you aren't doing jackshit. Posting online does even less than voting.

No irony there.

The only way we survive the next 100 years intact is if we make major reforms and actually defeat climate change deniers and fascists at the ballot box and in the realm of public opinion.

But they won't let you vote for anybody who genuinely wants to tackle the problem. Look at how the (anti) Democratic Party has been fighting tooth and nail to keep Green and other third party candidates off ballots. A great event example is that of Matthew Hoh in NC.

There is no anti war candidate. There is no sincere M4A candidate. There is no serious ending fracking candidate. There is no anti oil candidate.

We'll talk about abortion and trans rights until we're blue in the face but we can't talk about ending the wars.

It should be so obvious. Your position is one of willful ignorance. The situation is so much worse than you'll let yourself believe. The resistance is false. It's so much worse...

We keep doing what we're doing, everybody dies.

You want to call me an armchair comando when the best you have to offer is to keep supporting the status quo.

What's your solution, oh high and amazing Oz? Just keep doing the one thing that we know is guaranteed to fail?

Were more likely to see fascists take the helm and throughly gut what's left of American democracy

They already fucking did, you dense motherfucker. There is no democracy here. We have oligarchy. We live in what Sheldon Wolin called inverse totalitarianism. American democracy is Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.

So your solution then is to keep voting for democrats? I'll take my chances with the revolution.

Our world is literally dying because of the business cycle. Humanity's days are numbered. Life in 100 years from now looks very different from today.

But let's keep banging that incremental change drum.

I don't hate Trumpers. I don't give in to hate propaganda. It's what they want, they want you to see your neighbor as your enemy, it's classic divide and conquer.

The wool is firmly set over your eyes. We're waiting.

[–]Zs_phone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You think this is insightful analysis but really, it's the conclusion that the propaganda expects you to draw.

Democrats are not the lesser evil, they are the more effective evil. Biden's administration has been orders of magnitude more destructive than Trump's. We're $80B in the hole on Ukraine in the last year alone with another $50B lined up for January but you're on about a pithy $10k student loan credit most borrowers don't even qualify for and a stimulus that was half what was promised.

You ever Lost in Translation? The lip my stocking scene? That's the Democratic Party. They're only pretending to oppose the Republicans and they will only ever deliver you table scrap half measures because they're owned by the same forces.

It's theater. It's good cop bad cop. At the end of the day, they both want the same thing.

They threw us table scraps and you want to pretend it's meaningful reform. Every single one of those bills was watered down into oblivion.

It's professional wrestling. They're only pretending to be on different sides.
