In don't think we should federate either but most of that data is public anyway. Everything on mastodon and lemmy can be scraped without being federated.

Your experience is very different from mine. Yoy make it sound rosy over there. In my experience all but a few subs have slipped to the right. I've seen blatantly racist top comments on racist-bait posts on multiple mainstream subs.

That is misinformation. methamphetamine is more addictive and has about twice the duration of amphetamine, not to mentiom different effects.

meth is neither of those chemicals. meth is methamphetamine which has different effects, more risks, is more addictive and has a MUCH longer duration.

This is definitely 110% laced. Meth is not amphetamine, its methamphetamine which has different effects and a VERY different duration, not to mention much higher addiction potential.

Sure they are both stimulants, but both heroin and carfentanyl are opioids.

Maybe you have been misled as to what laced means? It does not necessarily mean that it's deadly

I agree with all but the first sentence. Markets do a terrible job at keeping capitalism in check but they are supposed to, at least that's what capitalism stans argue.

In capitalism, the core problem is power of business owners over employees. Tech giants hold incredible power over all of their consumers - aka the entire world.

The most famous billionaires are all tech giants like Zuck, Gates, Musk, Bezos. It's because they are in the news all the time as they decide over everybody's life now, despite not being elected.

YouTube, Insta, Tik Tok, Twitter, Facebook and friends are the main way political opinions are formed, especially for teenagers. That power should be in the hands of millions of teachers, activists and journalists, not a handful of billionaires.

Markets are supposed to keep capitalism in check. That doesn't work so good but they seem to be even more ineffective in keeping the tech market in check, especially social media.
