It's not nearly as relentless as most people predicted. More importantly, it doesn't seem very effective. Is this the limit of the extent of Silicon Valley's power?
That last question is rhetorical - I can easily think of people I would de-platform if I wanted to help the Democrats. I'm just wondering what's their plan. They could be going a lot harder than this.
They are running Biden/Harris for fuck's sake.
They are not trying at all to win a fair election.
They placed all their eggs in the "win by rigging the vote using mail in ballots" basket.
I think their goal is try to win via mass rigging and if it fails, it is to once again skew the legitimacy of the results of the election and then incite civil unrest.
Pretty much.
Social media made it clear some time ago they will simply not communicate Trump's victory and censor anyone who will. They will lie how Biden won.
At this point I would not be surprised one bit if CNN are going to play a pre-recorded electoral votes report showing how Biden slowly gains over 270 votes and accuse Fox and others of doing what they do.
They will get civil war if they do this and the real results show a Trump win.
I know this sounds morbid, but if a civil war was to happen I hope it happens as soon as possible. If the "good" guys have even a remote chance of winning it needs to happen soon. I know people keep saying the army is right wing, but I have little confidence that most of them won't just follow orders, and those orders will be to protect the establishment.
civil war from whom? the left has done worse in 2020 and nothing happened. face it, accelerationism just doesn't work when people have happenings fatigue.
Define tame. We arent on reddit anymore and neither is TD and a bunch of other subs.
But I think there is only so much they can do, because people will leave for other platforms, Veritas will find more whistleblowers, and they will invite more federal scrutiny.
A lot has change since 2016. Back then, Big Tech still had a lot of goodwill among the public. They were telling us they were the good guys fighting censorship, and thats why we needed net neutrality. But wow have things changed!
Yeah, exactly. Trump's tweets are being given an automatic fact check warning on Twitter - his health advisor is even being censored. Many right-wingers have moved to Parlor.
Every right-leaning subreddit I was subscribed to has been locked or banned. I hardly ever come here but I was browsing Reddit and I don't get any new content because all of the subs I used to be subscribed to are gone. I haven't been on Facebook in years so I don't know what's happening there, but the internet is a complete shitshow right now.
I know I moved to Parlor when I got sick of dealing with Twitter's bannings. I just got tired of dealing with it, and I'm sure other people are the same as me. I use Facebook maybe twice a year. Heck, I'm here on the .win network rather than reddit, that should say something. They will get their echo chamber that they so desire.
I do think there is one thing that will limit growth to new platforms, and that is the censoring of new platforms on current social media and the search engines. I'm pretty sure .win content isn't indexed on google. I think Bing is the only search engine to index it properly, and Bing is only ~10% of the market. Every other smaller search engine just uses Google results with their own frontend.
Social Media has been under scrutiny of late and it became obvious to the general public that they are biased as fuck. So maybe some people closer to the top just realized that the bottom line is affected and obvious biased sources do not change minds.
THIS AGED POORLY
