It would be funny if he started a Mastodon instance with whatever his values are. The reason he would never do that is because it’s not for profit.

You’re correct. It doesn’t stop Nazis from having a home or building a following. It just allows users to not see it.
Uh… source? This runs counter to everything I’ve seen and read about it.
No… NO. It was appallingly terrible at banning Nazis, worse than even Reddit in many ways. Twitter banned a tiny, tiny fraction of extremely prominent and openly fascist accounts that had been permitted to operate for years, but they ignored Nazi dogwhistles from large accounts and smaller accounts that didn’t gain a following and were used to harass 1-2 people were generally allowed to operate freely.
Remember: they didn’t even ban Donald Trump himself until he tried to literally violently overthrow the US government. Twitter pre-Musk was an absolute shit hole, but it was at least headed in a hopeful direction. Musk kept it a shit hole and just changed the direction it was going.
Thank you for the explanation. I essentially agree with your position, but also fear most of the people upvoting this meme aren’t appreciating a distinction between choosing “no ethical action” and “inaction”. Things inside the US are slowly, but unquestionably moving in a better direction today than they have been the past century. It’s upsetting when people who claim to care for their fellow citizens advocate for surrendering the already extremely limited power they posses to turn the steering wheel.
But the sonic meme says voting is unethical
The way to tell MAGA propagandists from real lefitst activists is that propaganda will ignore primaries and local elections. General elections in America are for forming coalitions, not rejecting them.
Anyone making memes telling you not to form a coalition against MAGA is working to further the goals of MAGA.
I know your intentions are good but if my kid stumbled across gore or animal abuse they’re going to require a level of “talking to” that is waaay beyond my skill level, and a content blocker is a lot cheaper than a child psychologist.
I know what these words mean:
computer
These are the words I need to learn more about:
NAS pi firing docker yaml
Bitwarden. I would like to self host it one day (and keep that backed up) once I learn more about all that junk
Correct. It means not getting fascists elected.
Anyone who helps Trump get elected is pro-MAGA.
Here is the joke:
Nobody actually believes it when you guys LARP as a leftists.
You don’t believe that, you just want Trump to get elected.
This stereotype of Vegans has always bothered me. I’ve never once in my life heard a vegan announce to a group that they were vegan unless it was relevant to the conversation.
I have heard many people complain about vegans completely unprompted, however.
Stuxnet was an extremely focused attack, targeting specific software on specific PLCs in a specific way to prevent them mixing up nuclear batter into a boom boom cake. Even if it managed to affect the whole world, it would be a laser compared to this wide-net.
Strongly doubt it’s a lone actor for the reasons already given.
LoL my thoughts exactly
How would you feel if something you couldn’t change about yourself was used by your peers as an insult? You really don’t see how using the word “retarded” as a stand-in for “stupid” is still an insult to people with mental disabilities? If someone was acting stupid and you said they were acting “like a Chinese person” that’s still insulting to Chinese people even if the person you’re targeting isn’t Chinese.
Also I’m calling shenanigans on “the 1980s definition”. I am the same age as you and I was taught it was cruel to use the word that way back then.
