Zuckerberg, go play with your BBS and let us worry about what needs to be discussed in this myopic, dystopic world.
any terminally ill people down to go down in history as a fucking chad with a rifle or a drone?? anyone??
To be fair, American democracy was replaced with corporate Government a long long time ago.
Ya, but now you can’t talk about it.
America was never a democracy in the first place
Reddit is shadow banning people like crazy as well. This is scary
Isn’t that already happening ?
Shut down and delete your data on your US tech accounts. Their business’s are worthless without our accounts.
It’s a process, start today! With the easy ones and work towards the hard ones.
Agreed.
fuck facebook
facefuck facebook
Quit Meta… problem solved
I have another solution, it’s a little bloodier
Free rare steaks for anyone who quits! But how will we pay for it…
Wait, corporate government, like in cyberpunk?
I’m reading the Sprawl trilogy along with Shelved By Genre, and Gibson harps on the note that ‘the Ultra Rich aren’t human’, and has some great examples in the books.
I think he was very observant, and Musk makes it so blatant.
Nah. Like in Snowcrash.
Basically. I mean there’s a bit more to it than that but it’s the core idea. It’s also the goal of several tech oligarchs which is why he doesn’t want the peons to be able to talk about it.
Thats a weird way of saying fascism
Welcome to Facebook the capital of Meta country, jokes aside, they are banning because it’s a long term thing and they are scared of it derailing if too many people know.
Everyone needs to GTFO facebook. We can hardly do it because every other HOA and School PTA is there, but we get stop using messenger and stop having personal discussions over there.
Don’t accept it when organizations require you to sign up and hand over personal information to private and commercial third parties. Requiring Facebook is an active attempt at curbing participation.
Oh they can’t force you. You can always rely on the pta just to send you papers home and backpacks and you don’t really need to talk to your neighbors or have them report problems in a public forum
There’s enough value for these places that I still go back to Facebook for it, they’re not forcing me. They just make it worth it.
Contact those places and ask for an alternative -the less people participate the quieter the discussions the more likely they are to at least try to switch over if they start feeling some pressure.
I agree that it needs to happen but contacting these places and asking them for an alternative is a lot like contacting a deep sea tube worm and asking it to learn brain surgery.
They’re probably capable of moving from one social platform to another, But it’s a lot of work and they’re destroying their network every time so they’re highly resistant.
If Apple wasn’t such a pain in the ass about notification services We could probably crowdsource NTFY and let everyone use it for schools non-profits and such
The best we could expect us for them to move to Blue sky. Health in my case half of them just recently moved off Twitter.
Yeah, I dumped facebook right after the election but unfortunately most of my friends and family are only on WhatsApp.
WhatsApp is a serious problem. There are quite a number of countries that are running a lot of their business through it.
And the fuck up samurai, we have new CEOs to [redacted]
Oh, this is the 15-minute cities they’re scared of.
Fucking insane how these people twist a good idea in to something evil, then support the evil version of that idea.
I think they do that on purpose. These powerful players not the idiots voting for them.
That makes sense. I bet lobbyist play a big roll into that. Is it the lobbyists jobs that are bad or the way and the people who take the jobs are bad?
