I thought the San Andreas fault would get em, but I was wrong.

Yeah he conveniently leaves out that the deniers of the science understand it even less.

“Right wing populist content”

Just call it what it is: lying to stir up hatred.

I swear when I was a kid in the 90s 5-10% was standard.

Anyone else remember this?

It’s not just comments and I’m not talking just about me.

You and I and Mel Brooks all know that the common person is a moron.

Algorithms push misinformation. Bots push information. Are we limiting free speech by saying “you can’t use algorithms and bots to spread lies”?

Does lying count as free speech?

For example: I used to like Facebook for seeing what my friends are up to. It’s not that any more. I would be rid of it but I’m a freelancer and a lot of my clients insist on using it.

Now it’s a constant feed of shit I didn’t subscribe to designed to stoke the culture war. Even the shit I did follow way back when I still used it a lot now shows me posts designed to make people argue. It’s like 5 posts I didn’t ask for to every one that did. I’m smart enough to see it, but is everyone?

Ok, now I argue that the constant bombardment of misinformation and hate speech we face online and through the media clearly affects people’s ability to live their lives, and is no different than the guy talking my ear off at work.

I’m not saying they can’t express themselves. I’m just saying that we don’t have to listen, but with the current state of things we’re being forced to listen.

How so?

I mean, sure, but does that mean people get to express themselves everywhere all the time?

I go to work and there’s always a couple fuckers who bring up their hateful opinions in a “I’m not racist but,” way.

It affects my productivity when I have to hear that bullshit all day while trying to get them to stop in a diplomatic way.

I can’t say it so directly, but it’s not censorship to say “shut up and let me work”

Huh. Well, TIL

He’s got nothing else to campaign on. Of course they’re all Trudeau. 🙄

That’s a very generous interpretation.

I hear it as “I can’t wait to get my hands in Elon’s pockets and get my kid set for life like I was”

They’re a Canadian company

Should be buying Earth’s Own anyway

It’s not meant to insult women. It’s meant to insult Trump.

We know he’s a misogynist and we’re not going to change his mind. Look at it as a personally crafted insult I guess.

But first puppet is pretty good too.

And Vance got cucked all the way to the polls

Solar panels aren’t 100% efficient though, so isn’t a bunch of it is reflected back in to space?

You can text pdfs. More people should do it.

Hey, if you’re struggling to make ends meet try deer balls. They’re the cheapest meat, under a buck!

I get what you’re saying, but it’s where and how people are and consuming misinformation.

Matching that style may be the only way to get some truth through.

I thought it was a good video worth watching, but she’s gotta fix her audio levels.

And yeah Instagram sucks, but it’s where people are.
