Blaming “the west” for shit that happened in the past doesn’t achieve anything, even if you are right. All humans can be corrupted and all governments have corruption.
Now instead of listing random events without explaining any sort of connection to the vague “evil west”, why don’t you explain how your warmonger Russia and your genocidal Chinese governments are any better?
“drama”? that faq thing doesn’t change the fact that we don’t respect meta and don’t want to share a platform with them
and it’s no surprise the authors of the software are supportive of its mass adoption, that doesn’t mean I have to tolerate a shitty company
being open to everything is not better though, and being open to meta specifically will threaten and lower the quality of the place. lemmy.world should defederate with threads
Why would you spend this much time writing up an argument defending authoritarian governments? I genuinely don’t understand why you would decide to waste your time with this. Yeah I don’t like America either but these communist countries are equally if not more evil. The USSR is dead so I don’t know why you’re debating people about their irrelevant staristics
Mostly because I don’t like meta and have made a point not to use any of the platforms related to them. I don’t respect them and don’t want their content or their creators to be a part of my fediverse.
and? that’s inconsequential it’s a different platform
yeah people are already saying the fediverse is dead… it’s just stupid to concede that easily. Just block the corporations and if they end up with more content and more users, just… ignore them? its’s not conplicated
They’re not going to kill it because we’re not going to let them… what’s with the nihilism? If you’re gonna resign that easily just go ahead and download tiktok and instagram and give away all your data today.
I wouldn’t call you dumb, but naive yeah. I don’t trust anything facebook does and them trying to get involved here is just another shot at unethical data collection. The content on all their sites is shit and sinpleminded so imo nothing they do should be welcome here.
unadulterated economic growth and corporatism is not what makes a country great
