Part of the grift is passing a bunch of money around at the top.

The ‘people in charge’ don’t even want us poors to know it’s possible to host things without the cloud, let alone how much easier and cheaper it is.

Hold on a second.

Black people fought tooth and nail for their freedom and equal rights.

That’s fine.

It’s clear that you don’t want such instances to exist, so you’re trying to convince others not to want them as well.

You can just go on about your business and if those instances ever pop up, you can just ignore them.

It’s there when you try to make an account.

It’s fine for you to think that.

It looks like you’re happy with how things are going, so it’s not really a concern for you.

Checking their TOC, it looks like they don’t really value freedom of speech.

They would probably not be acceptable by people who approve of the current state of lemmy moderation, and that’s okay.

There already has been.

Really? Can you give some examples?

The modlogs should give some insight into how much demand there is for instances that won’t censor people.

The fediverse as a whole is still tiny, so it may seem that getting defederated from the established instances is a death knell, but it isn’t.

I know. People are afraid to make them out of fear of defederation.

Eventually, we’re going to have to accept that there will be different parts of the fediverse for different people. And that’s okay.

The useful idiots are already gearing up to run him in 2028.

We’re fucked.

I agree. At some point we’re going to have to see a split between the heavily censored instances and the ones that let people say what they want.

Would be insane interesting if Russia was able to destabilize Taiwan the same way it did the US.

Americans honestly wouldn’t have a leg to stand on if Taiwan “willingly” rejoined China.

I’d recommend ignoring all these suggestions and trying some out for yourself.

You should be able to return the ones that don’t work for free within 30 days.

Can’t believe we’re still wasting resources making sure they can’t compete fairly.

Really shows the priorities of both parties in this country.

Riots are easily controlled.

Assassins are not.

Fuck reddit, fuck censorship, and fuck advertising.

Also fuck all the dumbasses that disagree.
