It’s not necessarily their activity though.

The algorithm will include one’s demographic, location, the things the people around you watch, and other things.

People ITT do seem to be taking “something about their activity” more harshly than it was meant. An innocuous video like fly fishing will lead to right wing content.

Fit me for a tinfoil hat, if you’d like, but I don’t think it’s just about what they think you want to watch. These services are controlled by right wing techbro nut jobs and use their platforms to proselytize.

Have you considered that this could be the “original” and you saw an “edited” one? Or perhaps both were done completely independently.

Claiming Anarchist erasure because you saw a different version of an edited comic is quite a leap.

Best synopsis I’ve seen, thank you.

Yes, absolutely.

My fear is whether Americans will choose socialism right now. I’m in a very queer, anarchist bubble and I’m not sure how to tell how popular this sort of thought is.

My concern is how thoroughly Americans have rooted socialists out of power and how all of our media will insist that we need more fascism, not less.

I think you’re correct. But if so, that means a lot of people are going to die and even after they die, we have no guarantee that the next power structure will be any better.

Sure they can.

I was just thinking that incompetence on this scale is likely deliberate.

Either some manager refused to pay for backups and they’re too highly placed to hold accountable, or they deliberately wanted to lose some data, but I refuse to believe anyone built this system without even considering off-site backups.

I don’t know how to break this to you, but mermaids don’t exist.

In your 40s, you will pay for the sins of your 20s. Pay attention to your ergonomics because by the time you feel pain the damage is already done.

I use thick cushiony gel wrist supports and an ergonomic mouse. Why would anyone want to be less comfortable and risk future issues?

Boo! 🤮

It is so infuriating how capitalists can use their stolen money to make people think they’re saints. (All the while their “help” causes more damage than if we let experts fix problems rather than pirate kings.)

And it’s even harder to criticize this bastard now because liberals think he’s on their “side” and any criticism must be a “vaccine microchip” loon even when you talk about things he did openly.

I’m not sure I understand what point you’re trying to make.

Democrats are not the left. It’s bad that they lose so often. If they weren’t so clearly beholden to their corporate donors they would win more.

If the shoe fits, wear it. It’s weird that you think my comment “focused” on white people, and also weird that you’re trying to blame all Americans when Republicans are 90% white and the only group that the majority of which ever voted for Republicans.

Republicans are a white problem. There is no other way to put it. Sorry I’m not sorry if you’re unused to being talked about collectively., but not doing so is burying the lede. Every time you said “people”, it would be more accurate if you said “white people”, but you don’t even understand why you don’t do that.

No, the majority of white people and the majority of people who voted voted for Trump. That is a big difference. As much as some liberals want to say “Not voting is the same as voting for Trump”, that is not true.

I don’t know much about UK politics, but Murdoch was pushing you right even before us.

I think about tabloids as “Propaganda that pays for itself”. What better way to sow distrust in science than wild stories about nonsense? Repeat a lie enough times and people start to believe it.

Tabloids have comparatively high sales because they’re pap aimed at the lowest common denominator. Young people don’t read print papers, so the tabloids make a business of confirming the worst Boomer fears.

When both parties are right, and most voters stay home, isn’t that the same thing?

You keep talking about “voting left” as if voters are given that option. Harris could have run on corralling big business. Does anyone think that “Almost as hard on immigrants as Republicans” was a better platform than running against billionaires?

Where do you get your opinion of Americans? The answer doesn’t’ matter because every media outlet, including social media, is owned by billionaires. Lemmy being the possible exception, but don’t tell me you get the impression that Americans are right wing from here.

Doesn’t it seem weird how many think pieces about Trump voters there have been in the past decade? I’ve never seen an article about an Anarchist. Not a single article about someone who didn’t vote. Meanwhile, every algorithm takes you to the furthest right content you’ll accept.

TBF, communists are really hot and good in bed.

Companies used to train workers, now they just complain that workers aren’t pre-trained by some magical process. (And millennials are old enough that we’ve forgotten how dumb we were in our 20s.)
