From Google:

Praise as a form of social interaction expresses recognition, reassurance or admiration.

It's definitely giving recognition and weight to misinformation and/or propaganda in my book. You do you. Me, giving the same merit to bullshit arguments so that it makes the situation more "complicated than it seems" is praising it above the level it deserves.

    I would be using mbin if it wasn't for the feeds. It will be a good chance to check out instances that block others that I normally have to by hand. lemm.ee definitely was not the instance for that, but not that I'm complaining.

    IMO, when Google lost most public support, it really started going downhill because the people who wanted to profit the business as much as possible became more determinant than those that were still trying to throttle the company due to ethical considerations. When a company gets criticized for everything it does, its decline increases significantly. Add to that it exists under the US government and how that has completely fallen to corruption.

    Don't people realize that ICE are the people with masks that don't have to identify themselves or provide a reason why you should comply and that criminals are the people with masks that don't have to identify themselves or provide a reason why you should comply? Come on, sheeple.

    Because they are morons getting stuck in the personality cults on demand that social networks are? There's plenty of news critical of Trump, but true news sources don't try to radicalize their viewers either. They all have their biases, bus social networks are the epitome of bias and social engineering.

    If only. The fact is there are also plenty of animal rights organizations that think they could have done a better job and/or that she was doing it wrong. I wouldn't be surprised if there were people who saw SaveAFox as another Tiger King.
