Yeah dude let’s just federate with an instance maintained by a corporation that has undoubtedly caused a genocide in Myanmar by turning a blind eye to a far-right hate speech group that caused an entire fucking minority to flee into another country.
I don’t get why people are supporting and saying “oh it must be up to the user” like bro this is the company we’re dealing with. Fuck that fuck threads fuck zuckerberg i don’t want his shit cancer near something that’s going well so far.
Israel have been successfully pressuring meta to remove and shadow ban accounts sympathetic to Palestinians. The level of censorship is crazy.
OK, I'll bite. You got something more substantial than "I read it on the internet" to back that up? One reputable source on your accusation? Not sayin' you're lying/wrong, just asking for some verifiable proof.
Well a good friend of my girlfriend is from Gaza. He has been posting translations from his sister's account of what it is actually like living there right now. Then some AI artwork behind stories of "this place was bombed, my friends just were killed, etc..." and he got a big notification on Instagram that "his account has been restricted for violent hate speech" even though he didn't incite violence even one time. He just has posts with 2nd person stories of the situation there.
