Lol nothing says we are afraid of the working class like banning subreddits on suppressed news they don’t want us to see. I came here bc I got a warning on my account for liking a comment that said “Luigi”. My alt account got banned for sharing the DOGE email list that is public info. Fuck Reddit. I’m done.

    Well… that’s just going to be most American sites going forward. That’s why ultimately platforms like Lemmy are so important. What a lot of people here in the States don’t realize is that this is a war on information.

      Oh, I realize it. I’m just shocked at how the social media landscape and the United States has changed seemingly overnight. And no major news organization has the guts to say “this isn’t fucking normal”, instead, they are normalizing it.

        MSM and social more or less support right wing views , not only that but many of the ceos are supporitng trump IRL too. if you look back at CNN even before the fuckery with litche and malone they all do military propaganda to a certain extent. i cringed when they did hero worship, with “fallen servicemembers segment” we get it, they died and should be honored, but it shouldnt be a whole segment.

        You don’t think trump laid down the law after the election result was announced?

      this is a war on information

      I think most people understand that by this point. It’s been a war on information since the internet was created, even 80 years ago people like Goebbels understood the value of constricting information flow.

        See… I’d genuinely like to believe you, but you highly overestimate just how aware the average American is about the situation. Pretty much everybody outside the US gets it though.

          Yeah I agree about an average American being pretty naive to things. It’s not even just naive, it’s actively mis/dis-informed too

      Lemmy is more important to those of us that live in countries without free speech. Like the UK. It’s still unreal that I can type that and it’s completely true. Although it’s more unreal that thanks to government censorship I need a VPN to access this site at all.
