I'm glad I'm not alone either. I'm thinking he could of swayed the independent voters who were confused but, to be honest things have changed in such a crazy weird way, I don't think it would of mattred. His faithful friend John Oliver was doing his absolute best but the message fell between the mass noise brought on by the maga crowd.
Some people suffer from reddit nostalgia and forget some of the most disgusting subs and activity during the early days was common place but as time went on it rooted them out and forged a better sense of community. Then trump emboldened idiots to be idiots and cultists obey their leader. Questionable people bought up share and spez suffered a stroke after Elon gave him the boner after telling him how much power he has.
Many people benefit from its downfall, its not exclusively to the election i just used it because I live in the "west" and I can see it disrupting a very critical election because 4 more years has of trump is gonna be bad for everyone....
No, I'm saying the people that control their wages have been slowly moving towards the point of protest so the shows they write for don't air because they are fighting a noble battle against shitty wages.
Elon destroys twitter and eventually makes it a joke and no one can be trusted cause the process of verification for that is a joke now.
Spez destroys reddit. Shuts down 3rd party apps. The majority of people have to decided whether to stay or leave.
The SAG and WGA go on strike because of wage issues, now shows like Last Week Tonight and other shows that take deep dives into the problems of government can't make shows that inform people.
All of this is, in my opinion, to shut down public conversations about many issues and the timing is also coincidental since the 2024 election is coming up and in a time everyone is divided, there is no comfortable place to communicate. The curiosity is if trumps social media and other right leaning communities are facing the same disruptions. Not saying reddit and twitter are bastions of the "left" but twitter and in particular reddit have been a place for public good. Now twitter is a hallway that is almost completely covered in fecal matter and reddit is a poorly designed website that blinds you with advertisements and OF spam bots.
Elon I can see doing it maliciously, because he benefits from a Republican government. Edge Lord Jr has probably doing it because Senior told him it was a good idea. The survivability of these companies are not in their interest because why care if you can just close it down claim the sale and go make more money somewhere else.
But the biggest one is the "Late Night" shows. Most of them are the way some Americans get informed about some of the more deeply rooted problems in America. You can look at shows like John Olivers, Last Week Tonight and maybe Late Night with Seth Meyers. Shows very critical of Republicans and trump in particular, completely crippled by the SAG and WGA strikes.
In total the information delivery systems we are all used too, have been dirupted and I'm seriously questioned its timing.
I was so happy to find an alternative in lemmy. Didn't know about it until I made the decision or rather reddit forced my hand and search for something similar.
I was hesitant but im getting the hang of it now. Lemmy is everything reddit used to be. No spam accounts for OF coming up or stupid bots telling you that you have made a slight error, post something not to their vauge and ever changing specifications, it gets deleted and you can't argue it because the mods dgaf.
I feel happy here and my protest will remain because I know Aaron wouldn't stand for this shit.
Lemmy and reddit are natural products of peoples need to share and exchange knowledge, you can't hold a capital on that...
Its too soon to call a victory, we won't see any real problems until a few months have past.
Lemmy and is now activated by my shortcut key for quick access.
Their move to Belarus is, in my mind, the new stage for their attack on the capital. Human waves until they break the line.
Belarus partisans need to do what the ru**ian partisans have done and cross the border to cause chaos. There was recently a report suggesting they have a camp already set up in Belarus....
