“raised an uproar on the X platform”
He’s using the fascist’s social media site to condemn what the fascist administration is doing?
Action. This warning BS from people in the mix can f the right off
He’s using the platform where people are. Did you expect him to post to Mastadon or something?
He’s using the platform where Nazis are, where the administrator of the site can (and regularly does) amplify the Nazis, and silence the non-Nazis, where the good people have already all left.
Mastodon would work, but not just Mastodon, also post to Bluesky, to his own blog, to Substack, to Threads, to Hacker News, to Face, to Instant Gran, To Medium-large, to wherever. Broadcast everywhere. Don’t just post on the Nazi site.
raised an uproar on the X platform on Friday
Why are people still using that platform? All the head Nazi has to do is tell some underling to delete/hide your tweet, or block you forever…
“anymore.” Honey, you haven’t been a democracy for a long, long time. What we’re seeing is the natural end result of decades of subversive work.
Honestly, and other people on Lemmy acting like this election is the ONLY thing that caused this moment are real ignorant, this has been building for decades. If the Party Loyalists had pushed their party to be GOOD instead of just being “not the other guy” we wouldn’t be in this moment.
How nice for the entire world to still classify the US as a democracy so that oppressed people in the US don’t get any ideas like applying for political asylum in the EU.
I wonder if beeing Trans would qualify you for Asylum in the EU, since Trans people are politicaly persecuted in the US.
They’ll likely tell you to “relocate within your borders”, aka: move to a Blue State, Blue City.
You could give them a minute
This would be a clear violation of the 1st Amendment, so any “investigative threats” should not be considered in any way as “threats”. They should instead be reported to the public as evidence of unamerican activity and disloyalty to America and American values.
Trump following through on campaign promises, politician shocked
Hmmmm
Anymore? Wtf ate you talking about
The FCC is like the one agency they could shrink
I get it, it’s too late to go back to an era where radio waves were free, but the FCC has way too stringent rules. They should worry about things like protecting critical devices from interference and ensuring companies don’t fuck people over (monopolies, robocalls, stuff like that)
The normal FCC is not the issue.
Trump and his people threatening journalists is the problem.It is though. Like I said, certain tasks are important, but others are overreach (specifically what they do with censorship and control of certain airwaves)
Threatening freedom of the press is a more important issue right now.
You don’t understand. What if someone wants a CB radio but doesn’t want to pass the test first?
Don’t scare me like that!
CB doesn’t require passing a test. They only run at 5W. Ham radio, I think that’s more powerful, that’s what requires a license.
Im pretty sure you don’t need a license to buy ham.
How is not not a democracy? Trump was elected with a clear mandate and he is doing exactly what the electors asked him to do. It is literally a democracy.
Putin was also elected
Lol
Democracy wasn’t strong back then, but he’s devastating it since he’s actually been in office. It’s definitely not now.
If a swindler cheats you out of money by selling you a product on promises it doesn’t live up, does it mean they’re just a humble merchant?
I note your argument extends no further than the election results - the same election that was being panned as “rigged” or unfair…until trump won.
