It’s like he’s running a “tell me you’re Trump without telling me you’re Trump” contest. Like, he isn’t saying it openly but each time his actions speak the quiet part out loud.

I’d laugh if it wasn’t a serious matter. And if it wasn’t the pot calling the kettle black about the liberals and their side of the media.

So this is the McDonald’s episode canadian version. Got it. PP not beating the allegations anytime soon.

I mean, with all the censoring and pandering to Musk, allowing for entire bot swarms to the point it really becomes obvious it’s happening - who could have predicted this?

That’s right, kids. Allying yourself with fascist tendencies in any way, shape or form will hurt you in the long run. Just provide the damn service people are looking for and stop playing god, trying to use your platform to shape opinions and censor statements you or your buddies don’t like.

Guessed as much with the wave of censorship many people, including myself, noticed and shared, pretty much exclusively to anti-MAGA opinions, and regardless of them being constructive and objective.

That, and the increase in bot activity in european and canadian subreddits, to the point it felt there were more pro-MAGA’s demotivating and belittling people trying to make a change, than actual europeans or canadians.

It’s one thing to not agree with my opinion, it’s a-ok with me and everyone has a right to it. I even agree with moderating extreme and violent statements when necessary. It’s another thing entirely to censor my opinion because you don’t like it. And on a forum like Reddit that’s inadmissible.

Nuked my account, changed to Lemmy and never looked back. And I’m happy for it. If you can’t take my opinion without trying to take my voice away I’ll just leave you alone in your echo chamber.

Yup. This is the kind of situation most average people will underestimate or believe this is just media doing its usual thing of blowing stuff out of proportion and creating drama for views, until they actually find themselves in a scenario of powerlessness against tyrants who waited their whole lives to have this kind of power.

And I don’t mean Trump, specifically. I mean down to the ICE field agent who was always trigger-happy but was constrained by law and its consequences. These people now see there’s fewer and fewer guardrails preventing their abuses, and they’ll take full advantage of it.

Never underestimate human ambition. Both for good and bad. Appreciate your human rights, but don’t take them for granted - the only thing protecting such rights is the fear of the consequences of violating them by bad people.

I mean, it’s not like it really matters with him. He’ll always be right, just as we will also be always right. And his followers will believe him no matter what undeniable proof is presented.

Macron literally corrected him on the EU vs USA aid to Ukraine as he pouted in front of the cameras. Days later he reiterates the exact same lies he told in front of Macron.

We should still preach the truth no matter what, don’t let them silence us with their lies. Even if they don’t want to they’ll have to acknowledge them even if the people have to impose free will and equality again, because they are certainly finding ways to force the people to accept their lies by force and their totalitarian rule.

Funny. I thought Apple, Meta, Facebook and Google facing lawsuits in Europe over breaking EU laws was completely unfair, according to Mango Mussolini.

How (mo)ironic, as usual. 🙄

Nothing shady going on here, proceed with your day as usual, dumb citizen. 🤡

So Canada should just ignore all the stuff the US is doing, reinforce their economy by buying from them, and pretend there aren’t risks regarding the possibility of the US being able to remotely interfere with the jets they sell? As if control over others isn’t something the US would ever try to do.

The best machine in the world isn’t worth shit if its reliability when needed is called into question, and much less when the seller can’t be trusted with that much power. That’s buying a few jets by selling sovereignty with extra steps - quite the bargain for the US and their current aspirations.

Buy from reliable allies, such as the EU, and if total defensive independence is a must start building the needed framework to develop a competitive jet building industry so that Canada can build its own by the time these ones approach EoL. Main point, avoid the US jets.

Inb4 Trump, the supposed “best ally and biggest contributor of Ukraine” throws a rage fit citing all sorts of dumb reasons we unsurprisingly will already have heard from Putin’s mouth.

Yes, that’s excellent. We need our own Google suite. Fingers crossed so that it may come eventually.

Yup. This is not just about who gets to lead Canada, it’s also about who can protect it against foreign malicious interference. Now more than ever.

It’s time for cohesion, both internally and with allies, not division. When the enemy is at your doorstep trying to get in, you forget petty disagreements (in comparison, at least) and stand together.

Did someone else hear a shout that sounded like “I’m not special!😭”? Down south?

Eh, must’ve been the wind.

Heck yeah. Go Carney.

With love from Portugal. 🇵🇹🤝🇨🇦

What she did is what everyone in her situation should do - not just if your visa is revoked, but if you are one of the target minorities.

It’s hard to get your life turned upside down and leave your comfort overnight, and very unfair. But you don’t want to let them make the first move on you.

As hard as leaving everything behind feels, the chance of being imprisoned and being powerless in case democracy falls and tyranny begins is far, far worse.

Many people who chose not to flee newly-formed totalitarian regimes lived to regret that choice dearly. As did those who didn’t have the choice to begin with.

Escape to safety, then denounce and seek justice and restitution. Safety first, always.

I’m sure not-nazi Elon has everyone’s best interests at heart for going there, right? Right?..

Maybe he’s just looking for marketing data to improve his tanked tesla sales. Yeah, must be it.
