Fuck off, these people already own it at this point, so there is no such moral qualms. They paid for it. As for physical media, do you think only these companies can burn ISOs to DVD???

The death panels Republican fascists claim Democrats were doing are now here, and it’s being done by Republicans.

I hate this planet

Stop posting this brain dead take on every post about this topic. Neither of your posts have any value.

What the fuck does a porn site gaining a “more official standing” (read: jumps through some random government hoops) do for American citizen’s privacy?

What about every other porn site that doesn’t operate in the US? This shit is unenforceable and only HURTS the “more official” sites by limiting their users limiting the reach of their models etc.

If you would just open your eyes for one second and get that boot out of your mouth you would see this shit only helps the government control us and what we access, without keeping a single child safe.

Stop advocating for the removal of our rights you fucking moron

If you have kids and you’re worried about what they’re exposed to, then do your goddamn job and be a parent instead of forcing the entire goddamn country to do that job for you. Pervert.

Moron alert

Jesus fucking Christ

What an emotionally immature meme, life isn’t a competition. It can be hard for people even when some have benefits and circumstances others don’t. You don’t know every detail and all of the context to everyone and trying to compete in the struggle Olympics doesn’t make you any more special than anyone else. You have no right to more sympathy just because you may have things harder:

Life sucks for us all in one way or another. How about learning some empathy instead of trying to turn your struggles into a badge to flex on others with.

Oh so the news mods are censoring Luigi comments here on Lemmy too?

The trans community is just the beginning, the first to be targeted

That’s why said thank for this happened before the 20th.

ANY amount of money undermines ANY legitimacy of ANY activity? That is just absurd, even aside from being an absolute statement.

Get the fuck out of here lol, just say you don’t want to try and would rather the solution simply fall into your lap for free so we can avoid wasting time responding to you

Money doesn’t make an activity good but it also doesn’t make the activity inherently bad or not worth it. There are an insane amount of things that have some cost associated, they’re all illegitimate options for an activity?

This county is a goddamn joke

No

That shit is the norm lol. Every apartment I’ve ever lived in except for a very small one has been owned by these big corporations.

Except Douyin limits the amount of hours per day a person can consume and limits the content to positive and educational content that has clear benefits vs the brain rot that is the majority of TikTok in comparison.

We are exposed to American propaganda so why fight to also be exposed to Chinese propaganda too? It’s not like TikTok creates special content or does anything special at all.

You clearly don’t like propaganda and for good reason, you recognize your own state’s propaganda as bad yet you want to keep a foreign state’s propaganda?

Why are you so desperate to continue to receive Chinese propaganda? TikTok ain’t shit, it’s a 10 second video hosting service.

Yes we are exposed to plenty of American propaganda so why fight to keep Chinese propaganda in the mix?

The ruling class doesn’t have our best interests in mind, but the CCP does?

It’s already been blocked by unqualified judge and Trump loyalist (constitutional traitor) Aileen Cannon.

hence why this article is not a big deal or dig at China in any way lmao

Why does everything need to be whataboutism’d to America. Yes we also have companies that work with our military, who gives a fuck? This article is simply pointing out that a big Chinese company with ties to lots of social media (Reddit for example) is also mil adjacent.

It’s just a fact, not commentary on China that then makes the US hypocritical.

Why are you making whataboutist comments unrelated to the article? Every fucking country has companies that work with their military, that’s not what the article is about.
