Wow, they’re tweeting about the #arabspring! Online platforms are going to be instrumental in providing free speech everywhere in the world!
That does sound more than a little sus.
Do you live in an evil authoritarian state where your freeze peach is being suppressed? Our friendly American social media service is here for you!
The fact that all this social media manipulation isn’t front and center in public consciousness really tells you about the state of ““Free Speech”” in the West.
The anarchist inside me surgically attached to my circulatory system as an disembodied head inside my adomen because he crossed me is really looking forward to the fediverse ruining the security state’s hold on the brainwashing infrastructure. At least I think, it’s hard to understand his muffled voice.
STOP KONY
The number of Americans who saw a YouTube video and wanted Obama to start another war was disturbing. I’m glad the creator decided to do drugs and jerk off in front of a bus while running naked through the streets, destroying his credibility.

That was a mercy; imagine if that grifter stayed the course and just got bigger and more influential.
Joseph Kony 2024!
I don’t know why people thought online organizing would be safe. The right does it, and then when they finally wild out we inevitably find out the FBI had a file on them. The reason the state didn’t act before the stochastic terror is because they don’t care or want to do anything about it. They’d never extend the courtesy of that indifference to the left.
Well, clearly it’s because they weren’t doing anything wrong and had nothing to fear from law enforcement, ever.
I hate the KKK as much as anyone else but they applied for and obtained their rally permits.
Edit: have I ever told you I love your username? It brings me joy every time I see it
Aw, thanks. It was gonna be Femdom_DeLuise, but this is polite company.

Findom is funnier to me.
People should have realised before and after rohingya what harms these platforms can cause.
I didn’t speak English back then, and a few years ago I decided to look at posts from the Arab spring and damn liberals were treating our lives like a game
the only thing standing between the north korean people and their self-actualization leading to the overthrow of the regime and establishment of a wholesome liberal democratic country is a few servers running software written in a very specific part of California
“if we burn” really dissected that period, such an excellent read.
I do not remember the politics of 2010 i was a child
You still are a chi–oh. 2010 was 14 years ago.
:doomer:
EXPOSURE! Fuck you, you don’t need to be paid! Get paid in EXPOSURE!
Fuck you, you don’t need livable conditions, you just need to be SEEN and HEARD until we get bored and clink our wine glasses to something else that’s more interesting, like maybe a tv show.

Oof, I remember doing a half-assed current events project on the Arab spring back in a highschool AP history class. I barely gave a shit about it or knew actually anything about it, but I remember everyone hyping it up.
The Arab Spring was in fact a revolutionary moment, and had an organized vanguard party existed anywhere it happened, it may have been significantly more successful.
