Yes and no. 1.4k? Out of hundreds of millions of online users. Literal raindrop in an ocean.
It means there's still too many people supporting the same corporations willing to manipulate them through stealth advertising, data harvesting/selling, and misinformation.
It means that there's still not enough people who care about privacy.
It means that there's still a lot of educational work to do in society.
It's not just the salute that shows this being the case (which is extremely obvious and intentional, again just by watching the video). It's the history of anti-union practices, the history of lying and being caught lying, the history of supporting far-right movements. Over time this seems to form what's called a "pattern".
You're literally sleep-walking through life or intentionally trying to mislead the conversation.
On another note though, 9 hours, 1k upvotes, 300 comments. It's a shame more people don't migrate away from Reddit, which is just as bad as all these other social media platforms currently courting the U.S. administration.
I don't know, this reads like a CIA document. I'm not signing a pledge to activism (that's literally in the doc btw).
FR though there's some good stuff in here lol
I think this kind of thing might work in a civil society, and let's hope we stay in a civil society, but once the boots start hitting the ground, once onlookers start saluting back, peaceful protests won't work.
The liberal minded can't find the leadership to organize change. Maybe too many people are too comfortable, but it seems to me a lack of a strong message and organization. A lack of left-leaning, anti-corporation, for the people kind of leadership.
If you still have your Amazon Prime subscription, Facebook Account, Twitter Account. The literal, very least you could do, is not support the companies of these literal Billionaires, with a capital B.
We need to bring back community, actual in person communities. Supporting local businesses and bring people together for discussions and socializing. As a society, we are too disconnected. It's too easy to just throw a comment online (what I'm doing now) and move on. Actual change comes from society, and as a society we need to make change together.
The richest men on the planet Earth are surrounding and and giving gifts/favors to a man who holds the highest position in a World Superpower with one of the largest militaries on the planet.
What can we realistically do to fight a possible incoming Nazi regime?
Same, but i'd still love for a way to nicely download these games across my network. Like, I have the folders in my NAS with the setup files, I just need an interface that will install them like a regular installer would.
I'm not the one complaining "people are mean". You're either a troll or incapable of self-reflection, which is why your "block list" is just going to keep growing and growing, and you'll never learn or change.
