Poor use of this meme template. The last sentence is not even a question!
I find it funny when people get upset that a meme template gets used in a novel way. These aren’t religious texts that are immutable, memes evolve over time.
Thinking this way is how you get “and that’s everybody’s problem” kermit
By “censorship”, they meant not being able to scream the N-word at black people.
Nah. You can still do that on X (formally Twitter)
And very soon facebook as well…
You can already say other anti-black slurs on Facebook.

what world event is exclusive to tiktok?
Are you saying next are going to be Facebook, Twitter and maybe Fox? Dont give me hope…
I’m not going to pretend losing tik tok, or any social media, is some travesty. Sorry.
The good news is that the main contingent of people upset about TikTok getting banned have willingly rotted away their attention spans (ironically, through TikTok) to do anything meaningful about it. The moment they realize being mad takes effort they’ll find something else to do.
Instagram, facebook, twitter, youtube, and reddit: all well-known for improving the mental health and attention-span of their users. /s
Bad take. We’re in the modern world of information warfare: expecting every citizen to be immune to psychological trickery from a nation spending tens of billions to research and test ways to trick them is unrealistic and unreasonable. There’s people with PhDs in human psychology spending their entire time and untold amounts of compute power trying to stoke the flames of division and push misinformation and you think we should allow it?
But enough about the US intelligence-industrial complex.
The US government isn’t in charge of one of the largest social media platforms in the world. US corporations are absolutely doing this as well, but that’s an argument for more regulation not to grant China free reign

US-run social media apps are pretty much now just arms of the US surveillance state, functioning both as pro-US propaganda machines, and tools to spy on the communications of the entire world.
For example, the most popular social media app in India for example, is facebook. The US controls the main method of news and communication for a country much larger than its own.
Damn didn’t know the US Government owned Facebook.
He didn’t say the government owned Facebook. Even so, it doesn’t need to own it to control the flow of information.
The US intelligence & propaganda machines dwarf those of all other states, just as the US military dwarfs those of all other states. And they don’t only direct it at other countries, they direct it inward, too. “Russiagate” was a domestic psyop directed at its own people, to manufacture our consent to censorship.

The US most definitely uses its surveillance and propaganda system to influence the public. This was all exposed a long time ago.
The thought that Russia influences AOTUS is a conspiracy is probably one of the more bonker things I have ever heard though.
For sure stories were made up but anything short of of acknowledging that Russia has financially supported and heavily influenced everything about the current administration is pure conservatard garbage.

I am not sure what you were trying to express with that. Half the articles show how Trump has supported Russian interests to the detrament of the international community.
It is clear you have not even taken the time to read your own articles. I am guessing you push so much conservtard bullshit it is impossible to keep up with the lies.
There is no doubt Russia heavily influences Aotus. Just the simple matter of bank rolling him demonstrates all you need to know.
