It’s kind of a hard call to really call the internet entirely dead. It just feels dead and there are portions of where people once were, that is dead. If you’re looking for honest engagement in places where bots are, then you’ll believe the internet is dead.
It’s okay to be stupid, at times, on a “I just don’t know” level. Nobody knows everything, not even experts.
It’s just not okay to pretend that you’re smart and know everything while demonstrating just how stupid you are. You’re only truly stupid also, when you don’t question, don’t have a sense of awareness and aren’t curious to know more of something.
That’s exactly what online engagement has largely degraded into. People who think that because they’re louder, that they have more karma points, that they brown-nose to mods/admins make them smart and therefore not stupid. It just turns you into a stupid asshole who has a fragile ego.
Well, yeah, it’s not that much of a mystery. I think it was even admitted that it existed.
But what we don’t have, is all of the documentation related to the project. The CIA kinda did the Nazi thing, where, they don’t want specific shit to be known about what they’ve done to people, so they destroy what they can.
No he wasn’t. He’s a fucking shit-stirring asshole who believed for the longest time until the courts had to twist his arm about it to be convinced, that actual children did not die during a shooting massacre. He deserves to have his platform shut down and given to a satire company, he deserves to be drained of all of his financial resources.
And before anyone says “his voice is being silenced! what about his first amendment rights?!”. All that his voice and platform has done, is just damage and warp the minds of anyone who so much gave him honest attention. Just so that they too, could be walking mouthpieces for him. I mean that’s partially why we’re dealing with this war now over misinformation, it is partly because of this prick.
If there’s anyone whose voice I wouldn’t cry about being silenced forever, its this clown. If Alex Jones has actually proven anything at all, is to how gullible and devoid of intelligence people are to have faithfully followed everything he’s said and done while spinning it all like as if he’s satire. Too bad this ‘satire’ was something people actually believed in and still believe in.
No. I’m mostly a person who cares about saying anything at all, than wasting my time trying to convince people about my arguments. You take it or leave it. If I’m right, cool. If I’m wrong, then whatever. But, a lot of the time, people are fighting harder to win arguments than simply registering both facts and lies.
And it’s those kinds of arguments, I’ve no time for.
Anon is a fucking joke. In fact, that’s what they largely have become anymore. They’re only serving their self-interests. Sure, they’ve done a handful of things that would otherwise be seen as good, but majority of the time, they’ve proven to just outright be assholes who operate arbitrarily but likely sides with their own interests.
I always thought he was. I always knew too that he’s never going to get a fair trial and that he had to do what was necessary to avoid being extradited.
He did a huge favor for the american masses, who were obliviously unaware as to how much of an extent that they were being spied on and how their privacy was exploited. Anybody who still calls him a traitor to this day, besides the government anyways, are those who truly cannot grasp or refuse the reality this man unveiled to them.
I do see people and people like Luigi as true patriots. They have done things, that no American has the guts to pull off. The American populace, just largely takes the constant raping of their rights by their government and fear them. It should be the other way around.
They’re bait posts because they’re preying on people to drop some really spicy unpopular opinion that nobody, even including the OP, will handle. It’ll create a scuffle, arguments and there will be calling for post removals and report wars will happen.
Also, it reeks of Reddit too, including to the last line.
I don’t want them to. Reddit refugees have already long trashed Lemmy and they’ve been working around trashing other parts of the fediverse, proving that Reddit doesn’t exist for any good purpose.
