No one is immune, not even the people with their fingers on the button.

The greatest trick Putin and his online bot army have done is use America’s democracy against it, showing the world that they can’t be trusted if every 4 years you have no idea if the next clown’s gonna cancel the previous clown’s agreements. Just look, one president has pushed the entire world to reevaluate their relationship with the USA. All because of some fucking culture wars? Trans people bad, so America must go isolationist and elect this clown who pisses all over alliances and agreements. How the fuck do you as another country ever work with this shit show again?

Take away the tacos and watch the border crossing open up

Muahh see, my language better than yours! Mahhh see, I was born in the right zip code therefore I’m special! Muahhhh

Who hasn’t gotten a little drunk courage once in a while and texted someone they want to roll around in the sack with, eh boys, eh?!

24 hours

Because they grew up on social media and social media is owned by right wing populists. End of debate.

Should Be higher.

Fuck Reddit, the great bastion of censorship

Shes not wrong. Had Trump shut up and waited until October, Apple fucker Pierre would have handed him the country for free.

100%. People treat AI like some all knowing god figure. It can and will be manipulated just like every other social media site or search engine.

It’s funny because if you read history you know that Caesar took down the republic on a wave of populism.

Never. Trust. An. American. They are worse than a fucking maggot, with respect to maggots

Amen brother

You don’t even know it’s happening, that’s a huge part of the problem. If I trust everything I’m an idiot, if I don’t trust anything, then what do I believe? It just reinforces echo chambers and comfortable narratives.

I will say that Lemmy has been a place where I can actually have a discussion. Why? Because it hasn’t been bought and sold by special interests and bot networks. X, Reddit, they all have. This will too if it becomes popular enough.

Saw this and thought it was appropriate:

Yeah thanks for repeating what I said

Not trolling: social media. It’s a mind virus used by both sides to ignite hate and culture wars. It uses 9 second video clips to project the actions of the few onto the many, making you hate entire groups of people without understanding basic statistics. The “feel it in your gut” crowd chose those words for very specific reasons.

Social media is a curse.

Ah well I “almost” took a shit in Elon musk’s mailbox. I didn’t, so it isn’t news is it?
