Fascist lizardperson continues terrorizing political opposition

The answer is that it was the easiest, simplest anti-spam/bot approach possible.

“Big tech” shall henceforth be known as “Big Pedo tech”

MicroSlop, GoogleSoft, Tim Apple, Chudd Bozos, Mop head… They’re all part of the fascist pedophile apparatus.

Man, I really hope TilTok crashes and burns now. It’d be so fuckin funny if they went through this entire acquisition to have users completely abandon it.

Legal is whatever the fascist party leadership decrees.

It’s less like “hurting” the corporation, and more like the government &/or legal system claiming their share in the proceeds of the crime… essentially racketeering.

Even as fascism and capitalism are aggressively using technology to destroy our democracies and wealth equality, “liberals” continue to use our tax dollars to enrich both and build big brother FOR fascism/capitalism.

Just like the Democrats have shifted far right for 50+ years to appease fascists in the USA — just like liberals did through the rise of nazi Germany — liberals everywhere will reject the left, embrace fascism, and abandon democracy sooner than they’ll abandon the implementation of the omnipresent mass surveillance state.

“Scratch a liberal, and a fascist bleeds” — black panthers

I view VR adoption the same as IoT and smart home adoption; the greed and narcissism of capitalism killed the markets before they could even be established.

Just like I will never buy a monitor or TV locked to a specific corporation, I will never buy a VR headset that is not interoperable with any computer; especially one that requires an account, data harvesting or internet connection to operate.

America is an example of the narcissism and psychopathy that extreme wealth creates, and capitalism rewards, rotting a society to its core.

It’s most prevalent in America because it has the highest wealth inequality, and the most religiously indoctrinated poorly educated population, but the ultra wealthy tend to be narcissists everywhere; especially those born into extreme wealth, like Trump.

Who’s we? You think you or I get to decide what will be censored and silenced?

Unless the protocol is 100% open source, decentralised, user controlled by default, and resistant to unwanted censorship and propaganda, the oligarchs and corporations will ALWAYS be able to seize control and use it against us.

If you genuinely think the solution is yet another billionaire controlled closed for-profit platform, propaganda-promoting algos, and a bunch of bootlicking gatekeepers to censor and moderate it — that can be sold, transferred, and monetised in any way, to anyone, at any time — whelp, the world must be an absolute enigma to you.

Eh. I don’t use bsky, and think most current ICE staff should be imprisoned for terrorism for the rest of their lives, but I don’t want any communications services to decide which entities should and shouldn’t be verified. That’s how you end up with power-tripping mods, propaganda bubbles, and censorship (exactly what fascists are doing with X, fb, tiktok, etc).

The goal should be an open protocol where users/orgs can sign messages cryptographically (like PGP) and every other user can decide which users, feeds, or algos they subscribe to without censorship. Like, if I subscribe to my friends and family (trusted sources), or friends of friends, I don’t want any form of moderation between them and me, but the freedom to sub to moderated topics is also necessary for public (untrusted sources) feeds/comms.

Around the 1970’s the oligarchs realised that the greatest risk to their wealth and power was democracy, so they set about implementing corporate dictatorships and ramped up the class war.

Fascism, culture wars, etc, etc are just a means to achieving their ends; that they can profit from the entire coup.

Fascists, sociopaths, and psychopaths don’t believe in free speech. They can’t be shamed. They don’t care about hypocrisy. They don’t possess morals or ethics. They don’t believe in the meaning of words.

They will claim to be the good guys until the very end.

These people are not well in the slightest. They are mentally ill, and capitalism continues to empower their sociopathic megalomania.

Lol

Ewww

The multigenerational operation directly involves the defunding of, and attacks on, education. This isn’t a this or that situation. ALL conservative and neoliberal policy since the 1970’s is about destroying ALL socialist/liberal/democratic advances made to date, and returning the working class to ignorant destitution; much easier to control and brainwash mentally-ill morons (see MAGA).

Rest in piss indeed

When profits are involved, always assume malice.

The only time you should assume stupidity is when dealing with family, friends, colleagues, frontline workers, etc; basically anyone you interact with who wouldn’t profit off the malice (eg the sales person or marketing team will lie to make a sale).

This is not “pettiness”. This is all part of a multi-generational psychological warfare operation to brainwash the working class and implement totalitarian dictatorship — started by the Koch Bros, Roger Ailes, Rupert Murdoch, and other wealthy narcissists several decades ago — and the fascists are winning; facilitated by “liberals” who are mostly a manufactured opposition, financed by the same corporations/oligarchs.

No war but class war, and the capitalist class is winning.
