I wouldn't mind if it's opt-in.

I certainly don't want the average internet user having any more control over what I see than they unfortunately already have.

This shouldn't be weird, but I'm consistently upset at how dumb the average idiot is.

It's scary how stupid most people are without even realizing it and I hate how I have to suffer for it every day.

The real world example is how Democrats voted against Bernie twice.

It shows where their priorities lie, and it's not with the working class.

To think otherwise is to be a useful idiot.

Our representatives don't represent us.

Those people that you get up in arms in online arguments defending? They're put there by the ruling class to take advantage of your ignorance.

The people who actually want to solve these problems are people we've never heard of because the ruling class makes sure they get no recognition.

I'd say about 1-2% of votes go towards politicians that fight for the working class.

Why do people in major cities like New York and Las Vegas love getting conned?

Stringer noted that real officers do not wear ski masks.

I wonder if this could be cited in court in the case of someone accidentally killing ICE agents, thinking they were robbers or worse.

Nice.

Doesn't surprise me that this sort of this is starting to take off in Houston.

This is disgusting.

I can also see how such 'tests' can be used as a political tool to take away children from people who hold beliefs that the current barons don't like.

Seems like it would be a good way to funnel content into more niche communities by tying their posts to whatever is posted on a subreddit until they can take off on their own.

Does such a thing exist? If not, making it shouldn't be too difficult. I could probably whip something up real quick and toss it up on a software sharing platform.

Would anyone be interested in something like this? It could actually work really well with Lemmy's option to show/hide bot posts because people could choose if they want to see it at all.

Yeah.

I recommend not letting the "wisdom of the crowd" dictate your decisions in the computing space, even with Linux.

Most of these people don't really know what they're talking about and are doing whatever they think will make them look good in front of their peers.

Try to see things for yourself and gain your own knowledge. Theory is no substitute for experience, but the average computer user doesn't understand that.

All platforms are just becoming censorship hellholes for the owners.

[-] icystar@lemmy.cif.su 11 points 5 months ago

This isn't news.

[-] icystar@lemmy.cif.su 15 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Good.

This concerted effort of censorship needs to end.

If UK [REDACTED] want their internet cut up like China, that's up to their rulers.
