Yes the idea isn’t, that they aren’t allowed to recommend anything. It’s that they can be held accountable (I.E. sued) if what they recommend, leads to people being radicalized by a hate group, or attempting suicide from cyber bullying. Or even just extra tharapy from doom scrolling ourselves to sleep. Right now Section 230 says they can’t be held liable for anything on their sites. Which is obviously stupid.

Those were my edits, they didn’t use both

On one hand the Judge is right. On the other hand the lawyer is right. Then on two more hands, they’re both wrong.

Yes, it’s bad to legislate by moral panic. Yes, kids are addicted to social media. Those are both facts.

The reason age gating is a bad idea isn’t because of moral panic, or “the children”. It’s because we’re ALL addicted to social media. It isn’t just the kids, it’s adults as well. The problem is the intentionally addicting algorithms, meticulously engendered to keep us scrolling. I’m telling you in 50 years, we’ll know how all the social media companies were hiding and lying, about the addictive harmful nature of their business; Just like we know about tobacco and oil companies today.

The best solution I can think of, is to revisit Section 230. You can’t hold these companies responsible for what people post to their sites, but we can and must hold them accountable, for what they recommend! If you have a simple easily definable sorting or ranking system of what people choose to follow? You’re fine, no accountability for something bad showing up. If you have some black box algorithm of infinite scrolling, based on a complex criteria that nobody can really break down and explain exactly why a specific post was shown to a specific individual? Now you’re on the hook for what they see.

I think that’s what they’re trying to say

That’s what the local feed is for.
I’m constantly surprised by people who don’t seem to understand what ALL means.

I think your questions are more complicated than you realize.

Are Autocracies more powerful than Democracies?

If you separate the form of government from the governing, yes autocracy is a superior form of government. A dictator can instantly marshal resources to face any threat, or completely shift an entire nation, if a direction becomes clearly wrong. The reason they don’t work, is because the leader is always human. Humans make shit leaders, almost always. So distribution of power across a large number of people mitigates the risks of putting it all in one.

Are all democracies are doomed to fail?

Yes. Obviously. Everything eventually fails. The Sun will fail and take the earth with it.

Is the future of humanity, autocracy? For the rest of humanity’s existence?

No. Obviously. Everything eventually fails. The Sun will fail and take the earth with it. I would hope humanity (or whatever species humanity evolves to) lives past that.

They aren’t mutually exclusive options.

See Gmail as an example.

Plot and story are overrated.
If that’s what really made a movie, a synopsis would be just as good. And way cheaper to make.

I just call it a “Pull Cart”.
Or “Cart” for short.

People keep saying this kind of thing, without understanding there are only a couple dozen stories. Literally, every good story is a version of something else. Maybe at best, a mash up of a couple.

Edit: here is a decent page that covers them all.

In retrospect yes, my comment could be seen as a positive. That wasn’t my intent.

Should I ask them about being paid? I’ve been doing it for free all this time.

Sometimes people don’t pay attention to the community a post is in.

I’ve never seen her be anything but a nakedly power hungry, political hack. She’s tried to sell herself as both a progressive and conservative liberal, depending on who she’s talking to. I wouldn’t doubt if sher looses again, she’ll go Republican.

She’s always seemed very politically flexible to me.

I’m not sure they do at all. There are just a bunch of Kagi users here.

Guy does the right thing and you call him an asshole for it.
