I hate to break it to you, but people in the US are probably just weeks away from being brutalized and thrown into jail at the behest of the Trump administration for any or no reason whatsoever. Things are moving much faster than anyone would have thought possible and violence, real physical violence is an unavoidable property of any fascist regime.

The show is the point. Users are supposed to self-censor out of fear, which is far more effective than any form of automated censorship. Reddit just implement the “chilling effect”.

The very concept of “allies” carries no more meaning in relation to the Trump administration.

I’ve noticed an uptik of pro Chinese propaganda content here on lemmy in recent days. I am afraid the fediverse had been discovered.

I root for bazzite. It’s so easy to setup and update all while providing superb support for gaming. I actually run it as a desktop os and I love it.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Doing this research transparently is a good idea, it will only be a matter of time before other actors will try and use LLMs to influence lemmy. Like spam, bots and farms, this is a reality the fediverse will have to deal with eventually. Better start preparing now.

That is my impression, too.

The Trump administration had barely started, it’s going to be a wild ride. I fully expect Polio to return.

… and many brain cells.

The way things are going he will announce it tomorrow, likely via social media and without prior warning to the other NATO members.

Thank God I’m not on reddit anymore.

Canadians, join the EU, or at least sign a truly comprehensive trade deal. We have adults you can have actual conversations with.

So?

Finally Americans will learn the actual definition of “freedom of speech”, only to late.

When Johnson says it you know it’s a lie.

Is this picture real?

But really, how would you prevent this? Ban cars?

Wow, a state backed scam and grift reserve. Surely this will turn out great.

Scholz, ever the egomaniac, didn’t bring Merz, of course.
