They are trying to make it seem like they care about kids at the same time they released the Epstein files… While Trump is lying saying he is not guilty / not in them. They are trying to rile up their base even more and encite violence towards their political enemies.

Is there any aspect of the police state that libs won’t support?
Liberalism enables fascism.

They have a chance for redemption if they flip and put restrictions on FISA section 702

They seem pretty reticent about pursuing white collar crimes, particularly when they intersect with sex trafficking of under-aged girls.

I tried convincing my friends to leave discord, and only 2 people attempted, but I kind of fucked up by enabling message encryption.
But now that this bullshit is here, I wonder if I should try again? I might go the VPS route and call it a day, but I really want to have it locally hosted so I don’t have yet another thing to pay monthly.

Complete anecdote, but without exception, every non-corporate Reddit community I am a member of is evaluating something like Zulip or Element right now with the majority of the users ready to jump ship.

Like it matters, since we are going to war with USA, straight up. Their data…will be useless, once in rubbles.

I still say we should get one of those shit flingers from a farm and give Reddit HQ a good smothering.

I gotta say, a lot of the compulsion seems to be around “adult content” which is fairly easy to avoid in most cases.
I would be more interested in how these rules tend to target LGBTQ+ groups for censorship than how they slap a “teenagers” tag on anyone who isn’t feeding them biometric data. This feels like another edition of “straight is normal, gay is sex” Christian orthodoxy being codified into the digital landscape.
