    So when do they plan to do something about those domestic businesses trying to manipulate citizens of America?

      I mean, the domestic businesses are the ones who own Congress and are using it to get rid of a competitor.

      While you’re not wrong about double standards, anything that discourages the use of vapid social media platforms is a win in my book. Use whatever backwards logic you like to make it happen so long as it’s effective.

          Lemmy is a message board, not social media. Like fark or something awful. You have no idea who the duck i am. How is that social?

                Undoubtedly, especially since I haven’t taken particular steps to obfuscate my identity here.

                But as I said in a comment below, I’m more worried about some unhinged nutbag online randomly targeting me than being a person of interest by any nefarious groups or organizations.

      Capitalism abusing citizens? Just fine.

          It’s just like Marx said: “If you do an oppressive oligarchy for 100 years, it magically transforms into communism”
