Fascism, according to Mussolini, is the combination of state and corporate power, the final stage of capitalism.
That's, fine, it's your choice to not use services.
That has nothing to do with anyone else. Simply don't use the internet.
What is China going to do?
Hell with China's track record, it's better that China has it than the US government if you're in the US.
No, it's been that way for longer than you've been alive, unless you're in you're 90s.
The star of David was adopted as a Zionist symbol, not a Jewish symbol. Before ~1850 it would be ridiculous to conflate the two, and until the 1940s it was still incredibly controversial to link it to Judaism. It was ironically the Nazis that popularized the idea a hexagram should be the Jewish symbol.
Id love to leave it back there, except everyone on .world is celebrating the Tiktok ban because 'those sneaky Chinese were stealing their data'. Half of .world believes China is a dictatorship with xi being a king. This level of propaganda didn't end in the 1950s.
Right, just like North Korea isn't because they say they're not.
No, governments can be great. Fantastic even. Not fascist governments.
The United States, having just elected capital to have exclusive state power, is fascist.
For most people in earth, it's really not
Baidu(and other mainland search engines) doesn't publish stats, and it's harder to track internal traffic given no part of the traffic should reach international routers.
Yandex is also used in the US and anywhere where the US government is less trustworthy than Russia.
You'd think so, but . world's TOS is a poison that tends to enshittify all its comms eventually. It's also absolutely not preaching to the choir on e.g. world or news .world.
This is a .world comm, anything that doesn't repeat CIA introduced facts is usually banned for misinformation, and anything that threatens or challenges the world is that US capitalism is the best thing for humanity is banned and suppressed.
Liberalism requires genocide to function.
That's liberalism. Liberalism is freedom contingent on capital, and serves capitalism first.
Winnie the poo . 1989. Tienneman square 达赖喇嘛 香港加油
Congrats, bigot.
Anyway none of that is banned nor gets you banned. Your understanding of China comes from the CIA. You're a puppet, pretending you're free, and you refuse to challenge your owners beliefs.
Winnie the Pooh is not banned in China, the movie came out in public theaters you can search it on any Chinese site, you can buy merch on any Chinese site from any manufacturer of cheap shit and have it shipped to a mainland address.
This was honestly the weirdest obsession of racist westerners in 2017, the insistence a random yellow Disney character was banned due to westerners yet again calling the Chinese yellow skinned animals.
Not a ban evade, not propaganda. And you're not on reddit. Please remember that. More importantly, I'm glad you found that you hated the US government, all governments really, and would like to dismantle capitalism in favor of mutual aid networks and found the right instance for all that early.
Some don't find a friendly instance early.
That's not criticism. Criticism would be, since the US tortures and kills more civilians in war than any other modern combatant force, as proven repeatedly by whistleblowers and leaks, the US is not a moral army and shouldn't be allowed to operate a global military network that seems to solely exist to destabilize the global south and ensure white supremacy remains the default mode of thinking.
That'll get you banned on Twitter, that gets you shadow banned on bluesky, that'll get you ip banned on reddit, and will get you demonetized on YouTube.
Edit: also lemmy is as American as an American flag made after 1980
Well this has been great but since you can't stop breaking comm rules, this is over. If you think you have freedom to not be right wing on Facebook or x, go ahead and try. You'll be banned in a week, or shadow banned much sooner.
