Where have you been the last DECADE?
The regime intervened from the time Reddit exploded and it became a too important medium to let exist uncontrolled.

Same as they did before:

Looks like lot of people are mad bcs now also their other side of the US regime is being targeted.
Not a peep from them when Reddit furiously removed and banned mild criticism of the Palestinian genocide, same for other topics.
I have a lot of questions about the f people complaining now.

I know about these 2 also just learned they defederated (and what that means).
Any more tips?

right, Europe only does the same as vasals

What’s this today? Been in the fediverse for barely 2 weeks only to be dissapointed by the same manufactured consent from its users (minus the bots).
All of a sudden I see anti-capitalist posts and based comments.
The ‘libs’ in Europe would be the shamelessly named socialist parties.
Invariably being horrible and keeping the status quo with only difference that they now and then throw a bone to the beloved working class and have their larping day on the 1st of may, sing the internationale like they mean it.

Chrome? I’ve heard of that once.

That’s not their purpose, they just need to look the part. They are comfortable in the ‘my hands are tied’ position. They can propose bills they know will not make it. When they have a supermajority, like they had not long ago, they are in trouble. They have no choice but to stop proposing bills and find reasons to say they are ‘sabotaged’. They played this game for centuries, still works.

don’t worry, you have that here too. A lot less but still.

as if that’s not the same

Imagine people making their own decisions on what they get to see.
It’s not as bad as Reddit but Lemmy in general suffers from the same manufactured consent and censorship.

Where have you been the last decade that you notice this now?

thank you

So explained to me, a tech illiterate in comparison, this is China bad scaremongering?
‘Backdoor’ sounds malicious with intent.

many are not paying attention
Deliberately sticking your head in the sand for some profit or convenience is not the same.
That’s an excuse.

LOL Totally not a scumbag Omidyar company

as much as possible

Americans are great at mental gymnastics and making excuses to get out of things when it becomes slightly inconvenient or requires effort.
That’s why you lose and keep losing.

Suddenly the horrible under any administration piss in a bottle’ company is bad?

Nobody shot trump

yes kidnapped ukranian teens are so muck better trained. 🤡

defend US interests?
The kidnapping videos say enough about what ukranians want.

Even the EU vasals have nothing to say.
Blindly follow the leader, jump when they say. Even let them blow up their cheap gasline and ruin their economy.
Not one peep. And now they are surprised they get no respect? LOL.
What does this guy think he has of weight?
His new US master will decide for him, that’s what happen when you allow your country to be used as a proxy.
As if there weren’t enough examples of US ‘friends’ thrown under the bus.
