This is why I don't even bother with reddit. I can't tell who are just literal bots or paid to be there. (or foreigners).

Reddit is worthless for political discussion. It's good for niche communities and nothing else

They'll be exposed for their fraudulent business practices soon. They have to be. No SM platform can ban every viewpoint that opposes globohomo and still maintain millions of users as "the front page of the internet".

Reddit is fake social media supported by fake users and promoted by fake news. For every real up-vote of a post that aligns with their agenda (see Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals), thousands of fake up-votes push it to the top. Unless you believe 90% of the population are niggerkikefaggots (or support niggerkikefaggots) who think a woman can become a man by making a dick out of leg meat and molesting children is alright as long as the child wants to be molested, then it should be obvious that Reddit is just another tool of the jews.

I can't wait to see those scumbags fail.

Every real human on reddit is a loser and a failure.

They live within a fake world and that fake world is designed to trap and harm its victims

They even had a subbreddit dedicated to fine tuning their bots and everyone didnt give af about it. Subreddit simulator.

I've known this since around 2008-10 when the five eyes removed all effective consumer encryption from the market. At the same time I saw the influence of social media platforms having on people and already knew they had sophisticated bots. I couldn't tell scope, and clearly its still shocking to hear but I also am not conpletely suprised. They've been hiding all sorts of technology from us for decades or longer

Never had a Twitter or TikTok or anything really. Myspace back on the day and my facebook account is still around though I haven't logged in since ~2010.

If you still have an open Fakebook account, you are still under contract to allow them to follow you all around the web and sell that info to 3rd parties. You need to go through the actual cancellation process to end their spying on you.

I've "deleted" it probably three times. Every now and then some cunt in my family just about forces me to login so I can grab the stupid picture or address or whatever. It's sad how many people still do literally everything in Facebook.

But yeah I guess you're right, they can keep selling your shit as long as you have an open contract with them.

Twitter is extremely easy to build bots on, they actually have a fairly easy to use and decent API. It's what I used when I was learning how to interact with web APIs.

You could probably run quite a few from a Pi if you really wanted to.

I looked into it a few years ago and within days Twitter, again, changed their policy on bots. Seems like a cat and mouse game going on for some time.

Did find a few LARGE companies that for a cost will manage your social media accounts to drive attention. This always requires bots and so it's interesting to note these companies never skipped a beat.

They do get kind of pissy about using the bots, but it's easy enough to build one. I gave up after they started doing the whining about phone numbers. No more cheese bot.

So which faction is Musk working for? Is this the opening gambit of a new political movement? the establishment is all in twitter and social media, but faceberg is shifting focus and now they lost twitter, and there are extremely few people under 30 who watch network tv. So we maybe looking at the start of an openly technocrat faction.

Never forget. They ALWAYS play both sides.

There will be a revolution, and they will pick the revolutionaries.

There are still many people being silenced at all levels and to various degrees.

What was the encryption they'd removed around '08-10? Fascinated to know.

[–] • 1 pt

They got rid of True crypt and at least two encrypted email providers. The way they took them down too was super shitty. Basically the companies just shut down and the owners never said anything more than they're not allowed to say anything. TrueCrypt was worse because the rumors were that the last two software releases were backdoored in some way by the five eyes prior to forcing public disclosure. The goal was to help ensure that if anyone still had TrueCrypt it would be a version of it they could easily crack. The piss in our face was when they changed the TrueCrypt homepage to basically redirect to BitLocker.... Suggesting it as an alternative.... One I have never once touched.

Damn I haven't heard the name TrueCrypt in literally a decade.

Fucking bitlocker windows bullshit.

The internet blows. Client-server model is stupid.

Evidence of the Internet is Dead theory ("Dead Internet theory")

The idea that, out of the totality of internet activity, the majorty is bot activity. Happened around 2015 if I recall correctly.

The scary part is this guy's brain isn't sophisticated enough to detect any bots.

Religious people have been praying into the void for some time now. People like living in their matrix. They will live in the bugs and eat the pods.

Here's another example: https://socialblade.com/twitter/user/justsomeguycc

Lost 19k followers in the last month. Now has 198. That's 198 followers, not 198k.

I was thinking about social media and validation earlier. There's only so much social validation/attention to go around. Before social media, a person couldn't get all that much. Social media makes it seem like that's hundreds of times as much to be given, and people live in a dream world where they post things and all these people read it and are blown away by it (by likes). In reality, it's just people looking at it for two seconds and clicking like. This must be a core point of it, to give a simulation of social interaction and validation, and to give it to so many people. It lifts them, but in an artificial way so that it doesn't motivate them to do actual good and useful things. I hijacks this system. Maybe it's good to be depressed or lonely, frustrated, etc. and then respond to that with actions that actually fix the problems.
