    "((( )))"? I thought that was a crowd saying something e.g "((( that's what she said )))". Or being a really fat dude. I remember :-))) being a smiley with a triple chin.

    ((( What does this mean to some people now? )))

    Confusing... that sounds positive. We should remember the atrocities committed against them. Funny how it was flipped to mean something bad.

    IMO, it should be reclaimed. Just like "slut", "queer" and other words are being reclaimed in a positive sense.

    Wat?

    ((( Google )))

    Jews Google? Jews say Google? Google for Jews? Google by Jews? Google owns Jews? Google is owned by Jews? Google likes Jews?

    How is that supposed to be interpreted?

    I went to odysee once and saw the Babylon Bee advertised front page. Told me all I needed to know about the platform.

    For real. I didn't realize how bad all of the YouTube alternatives are. They are just flooded with neo-nazis and bigots. It just sucks with how we really don't have much choice other than to use something like newpipe.

    In my mind it makes sense that the more extreme people tend to gravitate from public circles and tend to land in places that have less moderation and more freedom of speech unfortunately.

    There's a reason speech isn't 100% free. Yelling fire in a crowded theatre is never cool even when it's Great White, but in our eternal September someone's always lobbing the fart jokes because for their little mind it's new and cool.

    YouTube is also that way. It's just that it gets buried down by the shitload of people who use it.

    Eh to degree, but the reason neonazis and bigots seem to flock to/make up a majority of these sites is often because they're getting banned on YouTube - and these video platforms opt to survive by leaning into that instead of properly moderating their platform.

    Odysee is pretty mixed, but all alternative platforms are going to attract people who were pushed out of mainstream platforms, which biases them toward weird political orientations.

    Personally, I prefer peertube, but odyssee had potential... before the nutters. Peertube has this issue, too, but being decentralization, it's more of finding an instance with less nut. Like soy, nuts are in everything.
