      You have to be careful with information like that. It might encourage some greedy little pigboy to become an hero.

    They stopped fact checking just like Twitter didn’t stop fact checking. It means they only stopped fact checking right wing news or popular posts that Zuckerberg doesn’t like.

    I assure you, if a Luigi post got popular, Facebook will “fact check” it before it gains traction.

        Now that you mention it, it’s interesting, considering how we all share the same views, how we use this platform to preach to ourselves rather than to organize and collaborate

          I’ve long said that it’s possible venting anger on social media may be kinda like announcing you’re gonna do something healthy and then not actually following through, because the brain’s flawed reward system gives you the good feel chemicals for just fantasizing about going on that run instead of actually going for a run.

          The next question I consider is if it wasn’t a deliberate consequence in the early internet…are the billionaire corporates in charge of social media platforms aware of this now, thereby actively seeking out ways to make us docile more efficiently so we don’t get “uppity?”

    Ya know if the online world becomes such a cesspool because of Musk and Zuckerberg that it actually brings back the old internet, that would be fucking funny.

      In order to bring back the old internet you need to stop interacting with corporate silo sites.

      Do you think the onion has satire checkers, to make sure stuff is not reality?

      I think the satire checkers dropped the ball on this one.

        it’d be basically all sausages except hot dogs, since hot dogs are generally skinless afaik and hold together because they’re like 30% flour.
