> we speak the truth about stuff

Western propaganda works in mysterious ways.


You also have to think deeper than that, media in the west is propaganda, you have to ask why are they all pushing the "children are in danger from social media" narrative? You should never make the mistake to be so naive to trust in their genuine good intentions, this has nothing to do with children.

The real purpose is to build broad consensus for surveillance, control and censorship of social media, "to protect the children" is the thing they tell you to justify it. They are recognizing they have lost the narrative control. How do you manufacture consent for war and genocide when you have completely lost young people, they see the wall of carnage and dead children and will not be persuadable by the legacy media telling them to close their eyes and ears.

I would imagine these models heavily bias towards western mainstream "authorative" literature, news and science not some random reddit threads, but the resulting mixture can really offend anybody, it just depends on the prompting, it's like a mirror that can really be deceptive.

I'm not a liberal and I don't think it has a liberal bias. Knowledge about facts and history isn't an ideology. The right-wing is special, because to them it's not unlike a flat-earther reading a wikipedia article on Earth getting offended by it, to them it's objective reality itself they are constantly offended by. That's why Elon Musk needed to invent their own encyclopedia with all their contradictory nonsense.


It's just they have been in charge for so long, and gotten their ideology implemented for decades, the damage they caused is now so large and felt by so many people deep inside the neocolonial core that we finally see the first cracks in this system.

If these people were aware of the current moment instead of just confused and trapped in their own ideological bubble, they would probably all be wearing MAGA hats, since the authoritarian right is the only way they can realistically hold on to their rotten system in the long run. Curious why that's not a lesson they learned from history, too uncomfortable to think about that part I suppose.


Andrew Yang isn't left-wing wtf. People think Obama is left-wing too, people are so politically confused


Go look at his campaign website circa 2020 issues page and tell me again he’s not left wing.


True leftism threatens the power of capitalists. Liberalism is not leftism.


> This is America

It's probably not, but your post almost reads like satire in reference to the tv show by Sacha Baron Cohen with the same name. Living with so many contradictions for so long just leaves one confused and disoriented when it all shatters around you. American exceptionalism means the freedom to poison the well and the freedom to die from drinking poisoned water.


I'm a libertarian until it comes to human safety and corruption. We need regulations to regulate greed. I also believe in privacy and personal freedom as long as you don't hurt others. If you want to come to this country and work - please come and do so. Freedom isn't a flag on a truck or to poison the well and the and die from drinking poisoned water.


Americans have the politics of toddlers, the most manipulated people on the planet. "I'm a libertarian, we need to regulate greed" just like wtf even


Terrible argument, you should say because of generative AI where anybody can fabricate any image/video/audio of anyone in any context without their consent we urgently need new regulation of social media platforms to accommodate this profound change in our reality. Then make your argument.

You have no expectation of privacy in public spaces since forever, that is not a problem. Because nobody can photograph you stabbing someone and uploading it on social media without you actually stabbing someone. This is now different, because anyone now can make that photograph of you stabbing someone and post it.

That must be your argument.

And it must be on the social media side, because in X months some open model on GitHub is gonna make every watermark or cloud-based safety feature meaningless anyway.



It's not a representative sample so the dislikes it shows aren't accurate it's a bad estimate. I also heard some content creators that said they compared with real dislike numbers and it was way off.
