killing 2 birds with one stone. lol

billionaires are meat. lol

american democrats had 50 years and the majority still approve of it; maybe they’re taking a lesson from the american playbook.

i hope it’s just as tasty. lol

The fediverse doesn’t rely on any single instance as an unquestionable single channel of information.

The fediverse’s growth has come at the expense of it’s invisiblity to the attention of the us empire and; like TikTok; measures have been implemented on the fediverse, like I described earlier.

Defederation has splintered the fediverse and now the information that used to be shared in niche subreddits are only shared on the smallest of those fediverse splinters, while the people in the largest splinters complaint that the fediverse lacks content like the subreddits do.

I foresee those splinters turning into locked silos once the empire’s measures have reached an more advanced stage of development like TikTok did last week, becoming some sort of reverse defensive wall where the mainstream closes thier eyes, stick their finger in their ears, and loudly yell la la la; but en mass. Lol

The most disappointing thing to me about all this is that having a queer roommate is enough to prove that you’re liberal from now on; I thought I would never see the old homophobic guilt-by-association reasoning expanded to anyone who was once close to a queer I thier lives.

$5 says he’s going to assert the shooter was a liberal just like breaking points did earlier today.

very true and i’m glad you’ve pointed this out.

however i expect defederation to be leveraged to this end like it already has.

I’m not even exaggerating when I say that the Fediverse will be the last bastion of free speech and political criticism on the internet, because the same pressures that Trump and the Republicans can apply to Paramount and Disney, they can also apply to Reddit, Meta, X, and Oracle. Corporate will ALWAYS capitulate to fascism–they aren’t even bothering to fight back–because the only thing they care about in the slightest is money.

.world does the same narrative shaping that legacy-media, facebook, reddit, etc. does and the free speech & political criticism you’re hoping will live on will do so in the same way it does now; buried into suppression.

i wonder what your response will be once you learn that marjoree taylor green has tried to stop weapons shipments to isreal, but aoc helped stop her… twice

me too, but it’s a reality that’s as divorced from reality as maga

mamdani is the first of these and the democratic party won’t even endorse him; what makes you think they’ll behave any different for others?

reminds me of the videos of that guy who sits in wheeled bucked ostensibly pushing himself with an umbrella and a leaf blower; guy carries a leaf blower, umbrella and bucket around all the time just to make people look at him. lol

the phrase “international law” only exists to delegitimize the regimes of the united states’ enemies because only the united states and it’s allies gets to decide who is breaking “international law” by controlling international organizations that were ostensibly setup to enforce “international law” like the un or the icc.

we’re witnessing it happen with the sanctions the united states has placed on icc & icj who tried to apply “international law” to netanyahu & gallant and again with gvir & smotrich.

in the next decade or so, you’re going to learn of another president claiming that another regime has broken “international law” so we must invade/bomb them for doing so and a huge majority of americans will agree because it’s “international law”.

tupac famously lays offering at the temple of lucas instead of praying at the alter of roddenberry

i bet most of the liberals aren’t too keen on it themselves.

T’Pau, T’Pol, Vorik & Tuvok beg to differ. lol

it boggles my mind at how they could be so unaware when i’m out of the loop on everything else.

the people in LA have got it figured out and americans moderates condemn them because of the images of burned automated taxis and foreign flags.

very soon: all american cities are going to be a lot of charring of their own and american moderates will also condemn them while choosing instead to go to the ineffectual no kings marches.

americans don’t protest effectively and condemn others when they do try to protest effectively.
