Exactly, this isn't complicated. As you say, reddit facebook and Twitter are absolutely undeniably American propaganda and anyone disagreeing doesn't understand what the word means. In the same vein, tiktok was Chinese propaganda.

People on lemmy can't read any better than people on reddit. Censored. Past tense. This was all in the news a few years ago for those of us that haven't had their attention spans ruined by tiktok and can remember longer than a week or two at a time. Pro-China content is literally propaganda on a state sponsored app. Positive PR for a country is called propaganda. Hope this helps with your ability to understand relatively basic concepts in the future.

I don't stalk shit Hector, you're just chronically online with garbage takes and I can read usernames. You are not remotely special enough to follow around, you're just another bot carrying water for Russia.

It censored Tiananmen Square and fostered a positive impression of China politically, economically, and socially. It openly promoted propaganda. Hell, all those "traditional Chinese manufacturing" videos were literally state sponsored. Are you operating on some extremely narrow definition of propaganda?

It was absolutely Chinese propaganda, it's absurd anyone would say that it wasn't. Literally you thinking it isn't Chinese propaganda is a result of the Chinese propaganda on it.

Go away Hector. Stop bringing up fucking Democrats in discussions about republicans. Peddle your agitprop on ml where they'll eat it up. And stop using your alts to upvote your bullshit, it's pathetic.

Oh for fucks sake you people.

Ok you're trolling.

Why do you need to leave it running? Why would you have it running if you're not playing a steam game or using its overlay and controller features? You're inventing problems that don't exist because you seem to not understand how to use the software. You open it when you want to play a game. If it starts updating stuff, you pause it or cancel it. Why would you blame steam for developers pushing updates in the first place? Turn off updates, boom problem solved. Like yeah, gog is better in their DRM stance but galaxy is not great software, and updates are important for modern games that ship largely broken and unoptimized, and the gog offline installers do not make updating easy. You're holding a fork and complaining that it makes for a shitty knife, like yeah bud, you're using it wrong.

Even if states band together who they gonna send? Police side with ice. Military sides with ice. Maybe you get the state national guard and some reservists but you'd need the guard to effectively mutiny and hope they follow the state instead of the fed. Realistically there's no way organized fighting occurs. It's just going to be police and military killing protesters with an occasional guerilla strike against them.

Friendly reminder that thousands of detainees from this past year are missing with no records. There were tens of thousands of missing people his last term too.
