In Trump's latest Truth Social post, he shares a disgusting video depicting a golden statue of himself, a sky scraper with his name on it, a superyacht on the Gaza coast, him holding hands with a female entertainer in a night club wearing a see-through gown, him & Netanyahu shirtless together sipping alcohol on the Gaza coast with a sign that says "Trump Gaza," and money raining down with kids jumping up to grab it.

All the signs of what many would call the antichrist, yet the religious-right is convinced he's their savior. He wants to turn Gaza into a Las Vegas style resort with his name plastered everywhere.

By the same token, one can argue that expert Fediversers shouldn't have any trouble retracing the true origin of whatever story they want to post and linking to that instead, to give credit where credit is due.

Because really, it doesn't cost anything and it helps deprive the leeching aggregators of a few clicks.

That's a different matter though when it comes to ad block usage here, which you had presented as though this place has the same mainstream access of non ad block users as other platforms.

I'm just talking about ad block usage of fediverse compared to other sites.
