The Trump administration has aggressively rolled back efforts across the federal government to combat human trafficking, a Guardian investigation has found.
The sweeping retreat threatens to negate decades of progress in the drive to prevent sexual slavery, forced labor and child sexual exploitation, according to legal experts, former government officials and anti-trafficking advocates. They say the administration’s moves are impeding efforts to prosecute perpetrators and protect survivors in the United States and around the world.
“It’s been a widespread and multi-pronged attack on survivors that leaves all of us less safe and leaves survivors with few options,” said Jean Bruggeman, executive director of Freedom Network USA, a national coalition of service providers, researchers and trafficking survivors.
Literally fucking campaigned on this shit. I’m so fucking disgusted people keep voting for a guy that just keeps pissing in their faces
If they’re anything like their golden(-showering) god, they’re into it.
It’s what tribalism got us.
I guarantee you, most of the people voting for Trump don’t get exposed to anti-conservative ideas because they’re banned from interacting with liberals on most social media.
Each time someone gets banned on reddit for sharing a conservative viewpoint, however incorrect it may be, becomes a conservative for life and gets pushed further towards its culture.
We need more spaces on the internet where people can freely share their ideas without fear of censorship. Moderators can genuinely go fuck themselves with how much they’ve gotten in the way of allowing different sides to communicate. They helped cause this divide and do their damnedest to keep it going.
That’s very rare in my view, though I have seen it in one fairly prominent (at one point it was prominent) place - Boing Boing. That place took their comments behind a paywall, probably so they could make it even more of an echo chamber, lol? That was last year that they changed the comments - the old comments are still up and read-only. If you want to see a real divisive circle jerk created by mods, you can take a look yourself.
In most places, I only see conservatives or Republicans shut down in only very extreme cases. Usually it involves rape/death threats, etc. What kind of communication is that?
You don’t get banned from social media for having “conservative views”. Only for hurting others. Have you been trying to hurt others?
i mean a few of those mods that run half of reddit are pusillanimous dweebs, and there’s a million ways to get those thin-skinned bastards to ban you unjustifiably.
So are you a proponent of AMAB then?
