  • I mean, you're the one brigading. That's more fitting of a question for the other person to ask.

  • It baffles me why Davel thought I was a recurring troll, and then had to unban me just to ban me again so that I appeared at the top of the modlogs. Does he genuinely think I'm any of those users, or is this a game of satisfaction to him as this would imply?

  • You'd be surprised. Any time some famous YouTube host says anything about Tiananmen Square, there's almost always an obligatory drama queen remark about being banned from China the moment it gets uploaded (I say "drama queen remark" because I would be surprised if anyone would actually want to go to China aside from seeing the great wall and marking it off a bucket list of every nation that ever existed).

  • I'm surprised they'd actually oblige on that.

  • Do you ever plan to go to Murica or have family in Murica?

  • If by speculation you mean indirect confirmation.

  • I couldn't have explained that aspect better. Thanks.

  • Not really what I said. Though I think this was answered better in the other exchange where someone asked.

  • It's not new news. It's just a new development in that news. Spying was already a topic with Luigi and Robin, but Charlie Kirk's assassination was an enormous deal apparently, with world leaders the world over paying respects. That kicked off a whole search engine based registry, which MSNBC reported on. Some of this involves a doxxing process, and even if this wasn't already made clear, you could put two and two together and get an idea that Lemmy would play a huge part in this and would be the thing all the paper trails lead to.

    As for knowing exactly who is working with the NSA, people working for the agency would follow the same tactics. They entice a reaction, fake-debate with people, mine people for knowledge while knowing who probably is and isn't sympathetic to extremists (even though they would play it safe and treat everyone the same). They're not afraid to outright sit down with trustees though (recall the story of Orwell ratting out his comrades), and the crew behind the search engine registry isn't classified. Some people will brag and say they're working with the government as a flex, and occasionally it will be consistent with events surrounding suspects.

  • For better or worse, the government isn't dumb and they're aware not everyone in the fediverse is who they're looking for. The fediverse is very feudal, and the government has occasionally popped in to subtly ask the disillusioned for pointers, since simple spying often leads to questions. So there's active collaboration here.

    Keep in mind this is a recent development in fairly old news. Trump was known in the beginning to vet immigrants for their social media presence. The freedom from lèse-majesté as it's called has been broken.

  • A mix of all the above. Recall that time in American history that Orwell ratted on his comrades.

  • Judas-kissing is a midwest term. It means using covert means to mark someone as a person of interest for other people. It comes from the story of Judas kissing Jesus as a way to tell the Romans which person in the audience was Jesus.

    "Honeypot" is government slang. It means an organization secretly made to keep track of a certain demographic. In this case, it refers to the government using the fediverse as a litmus test for whoever they think is worth putting under their radar.

  • The way you talk makes it sound like you want to be all high and mighty. I understand vigilantism can do that, but if you're equating them with me (and that mod you accused in the Piracy sub), your findings are simply false. Think of who you actually speak for.

    TIL that, when recording the scene in Avatar when Azula went insane, everyone else had to flee the studio because Azula's voice actor was tapping into actual trauma of hers to make the scene authentic
