That’s, fine, it’s your choice to not use services.

That has nothing to do with anyone else. Simply don’t use the internet.

What is China going to do?

Hell with China’s track record, it’s better that China has it than the US government if you’re in the US.

The star of David was adopted as a Zionist symbol, not a Jewish symbol. Before ~1850 it would be ridiculous to conflate the two, and until the 1940s it was still incredibly controversial to link it to Judaism. It was ironically the Nazis that popularized the idea a hexagram should be the Jewish symbol.

Id love to leave it back there, except everyone on .world is celebrating the Tiktok ban because ‘those sneaky Chinese were stealing their data’. Half of .world believes China is a dictatorship with xi being a king. This level of propaganda didn’t end in the 1950s.

Note:don’t do this if you’re a minority compared to your cities population

You’d think so, but . world’s TOS is a poison that tends to enshittify all its comms eventually. It’s also absolutely not preaching to the choir on e.g. world or news .world.

This is a .world comm, anything that doesn’t repeat CIA introduced facts is usually banned for misinformation, and anything that threatens or challenges the world is that US capitalism is the best thing for humanity is banned and suppressed.

Winnie the poo . 1989. Tienneman square 达赖喇嘛 香港加油

Congrats, bigot.

Anyway none of that is banned nor gets you banned. Your understanding of China comes from the CIA. You’re a puppet, pretending you’re free, and you refuse to challenge your owners beliefs.

Winnie the Pooh is not banned in China, the movie came out in public theaters you can search it on any Chinese site, you can buy merch on any Chinese site from any manufacturer of cheap shit and have it shipped to a mainland address.

This was honestly the weirdest obsession of racist westerners in 2017, the insistence a random yellow Disney character was banned due to westerners yet again calling the Chinese yellow skinned animals.

Not a ban evade, not propaganda. And you’re not on reddit. Please remember that. More importantly, I’m glad you found that you hated the US government, all governments really, and would like to dismantle capitalism in favor of mutual aid networks and found the right instance for all that early.

Some don’t find a friendly instance early.

That’s not criticism. Criticism would be, since the US tortures and kills more civilians in war than any other modern combatant force, as proven repeatedly by whistleblowers and leaks, the US is not a moral army and shouldn’t be allowed to operate a global military network that seems to solely exist to destabilize the global south and ensure white supremacy remains the default mode of thinking.

That’ll get you banned on Twitter, that gets you shadow banned on bluesky, that’ll get you ip banned on reddit, and will get you demonetized on YouTube.

Edit: also lemmy is as American as an American flag made after 1980

Well this has been great but since you can’t stop breaking comm rules, this is over. If you think you have freedom to not be right wing on Facebook or x, go ahead and try. You’ll be banned in a week, or shadow banned much sooner.

the fediverse is great, you can switch your account away from instances that do not align with your viewpoints or otherwise do not serve you.

If you do that, though, redditors that forgot what service they’re on will judge you

Nixon created the EPA, expanded the national park system as well as explicitly protected the Everglades from development, and worked to transition from coal to nuclear power. He was the last of the conservativism = conservation conservatives.

There are accounts he primarily did all of this to just ensure his reelection and accumulate political capital and good will, but that hardly changes the fact he was one of the best US presidents in terms of environmental policy.

As someone that actively uses Tiktok, no, no it doesn’t remove lgbtq+ content for being lgbtq+. I have no doubts some creators screech about censorship because their nearly nude thirst traps got deleted; but pride is covered every year and at least a few thousand trans creators exclusively owe their treatment payments due to Tiktok giving them a platform and actively boosting them.

No, no it doesn’t. Tiktok has a bigger lgbtq+ creator presence than YouTube or Facebook.

You know most people in China have unrestricted internet access, right? It’s the equivalent of a couple bucks USD a year for a cheap VPN, and it’s not a criminal infraction to bypass the country’s default restrictions.

…No, he didn’t. Just by any measure no he didn’t. Even if you just limit it to US presidents, no he didn’t. Nixon did more for climate change than Biden, by several orders of magnitude.
