I mean it is funny, but there's a chasm between government censorship and whatever xitter is doing.

that pic of the woman saying Dumb NWORD , followed up by a rebuttal Dumb Cracker (the latter was taken down by admins) tells you all you need to know about elon musk
Well, that's how "biased free speech" works.
Crazy thought: What if both platforms are bad?
The fucking side picking on this, and the principles so called progressives and even leftist (being openly welcomed to the tankie side, I guess) are willing to throw out the window just to defend an openly oppressive and abusive state simply because it is "anti-American", as if both aren't pulling the same shit in slightly different variations, is doing my fucking head in.
What will it take for people to realise all states exist to oppress and control the working class for the benefit of the ruling one, no matter who it theoretically opposes? (not a social media fad, that's for fucking sure)
Surely staying isolated from the Chinese populous will help us achieve internationalism.
This is a good point. Even if it is spyware, all things being equal surely more interaction between Chinese and American people is a good thing right? We have more in common than not ultimately.

At least the whale is biodegradable!
If you cannot host it, you cannot own it. If you cannot own it, it's not resistant to censorship.
Twitterβs CEO just violated their own TOS because heβs a butt hurt little baby about people finding out he only tells lies.
There is nothing in China that will ever harm you as much as the American Government does. Ever.
But keep giving your info to the NSA, Iβm sure theyβre good people with good intentions. Surely.
And this here is the exact reason im on lemmy.
Lemmy.ml: Comment removed for rule 1. Banned from all communities.
I knew someone would mention it but on lemmy if youre banned from one instance you can just use the other 200 instances
Aye of course, just poking fun that it's not always free from the same bullshit here too!
Don't pretend we're free to post literally anythere here, either. There's rules.
Its kind of a choose which rules you want. You have to agree with the hivemind but you can choose which one. At least this exposes the communities to each other to mix ideas. While i hate .ml they do have some stuff that is good.
Has Lemmy just been completely flooded with CCP apologists now?
RedNote ToS includes provisions that require you to post "correct views on history, nationality, state, or culture".
I guess if you believe Taiwan should be "returned" to the mainland, Uhghurs deserve to be "re-educated" and enslaved, and that China is the natural and rightful pre-eminant global power... you're gonna be fine.
Lmao yes, have you not been spending much time on here? The second biggest instance is run by tankies
Let's just say I roll with the stricter, more traditional definition of "tankie" not the current definition which is much closer to "people I disagree with"
Yes, I'll take my downvote now sir.
