Sure mate.

You’re suggesting that showing videos in a town square is the same as posting in Twitter? They’re not the same, obviously.

It’s complex and I don’t have the answers. My comment is merely hilighting the conflict between these 2 ideals… governments shouldn’t whether or not specific content is ok, but companies shouldn’t provide content which is clearly unacceptable.

If xitter didn’t provide that content the government wouldn’t have to intervene.

If the government does intervene it reduces the barrier for them to intervene in future.

I’m quite conflicted about this.

I hate musk. Hate twitter. Hate that people were sharing videos of a terrorist attack.

That said, I suspect that this was something of a test case, with the regulator flexing their censorship muscle, and I’m glad it didn’t work out.

It’s also disappointing that her kids were doxxed, I don’t condone that at all… but “just doing my job” is not a reasonable defence when you have a shitty job strategising how to corrode privacy.

The nutrition panel only captures a subset of important bioavailable nutrients.

For example, water is obviously a digestible nutrient, but is not represented there on.

My honest interpretation is that there are actually very few right wing propagandists masquerading as lefties, but they are very effective at bringing hapless idiot lefties to their narrative.

Well, the point I’ve been trying to make is that on balance, mods have been reluctant to engage with negative feedback, and I think this is a salient example.

I think you can imagine how, from the perspective of a community member, it would feel like you’ve started with the belief that the bot is good, and sought feedback in that context.

The erroneous assumption you’ve made regarding vote manipulation is a pretty clear example of that.

This is what I mean by users feeling as though their opinions have been dismissed.

Ok, but you did claim that you had evidence that some of the downvotes were sockpuppets, contrary to the analysis discussed in this comment.

So based on your other comment, the “evidence” you’re referring to here is merely that vote manipulation had occurred in some other community?

I don’t concede that the protests thus far have reduced any suffering I’m Gaza.

If you want to minimise suffering in Gaza, make sure Harris wins. Do these protests further that objective?

I understand you’re not suggesting people vote for Trump, but that just gets lost in the noise. There’s plenty of people that would see these protests and conclude that “both sides are bad” and simply not vote.

I still won’t be protesting after the election. Firstly because im not in the US, but even if i was I just don’t think it’s a very effective use of time.

Pressure is applied where it is most effective.

My point is, by complaining about the Dems and not about Trump you’re undermining the likelihood of a Dem president.

The whole “genocide joe” narrative did not provide any benefit in Gaza, but significantly improved the chances of a Trump presidency.

Protesting outside the DNC is actively supporting a Trump presidency and worse outcomes in Gaza.

… if Biden had done this they would be screaming blue bloody murder.

Where are all the hexbear and .ml kids frothing at the mouth about this?

The FEC’s six commissioners, who are frequently divided along ideological lines, often deadlock on high-profile and matters, too, with tie votes of 3-3 leading to the dismissal of a case.

This is just so American.

That’s not really what he said. If you read the quotes from the other articles he said “we” agreed to 3 debates.

The “we” is his team, not Harris. He’s trying to imply that she agreed to the fox debate. When it falls through he will withdraw from the abc debate.
