Who is holding this puppet's strings ?

ALSO, I am not involved in international child trade.

That's exactly what sometime involved in international child trading would say!

Until pinging is back, fuck ALL admins. Due to reddits obese admins prob leaning left, I'm just going to vote Republican for the first time in my life.

Until this travesty of justice is fixed and pinging is back, I will convince everyone I know to vote red.

NO ADMINS, NO MODS AND NO MASTERS.๐Ÿ”ซ๐Ÿ˜Ž

watergun emoji

did you know that its supposed be a pistol, literally???

It's a revolver as far as I can see. Blame your cuck country, whichever that is.

It's a client issue, not a government censorship one.

Ah, my bad then. It sucks anyway I suppose, having your emojis filtered so they don't offend toddlers

Nah, toddlers love guns. It's the adult-toddlers who are offended by pictures of guns.

Where is the mk18mod0 emoji?

Let's change a cross platforms image on our system this won't cause problems or be fucking pointless.

"Can't wait to go to school tomorrow, so hot. Be ready. ๐Ÿ”ซ๐Ÿ”ซ๐Ÿ”ซ"

Is either a warning from a animayo or just some waterfight.

The reason it's a water pistol on all clients is because Apple made a big deal about it, but Microsoft had it displaying as a 1960's style space lazer gun since at least Windows 8.

Its a revolver on windows

For some reason on my version of 1803 (17134), I'm still getting water pistols.

Space Force

Microsoft master race

Um, sweaty, guns are for bad people.

and that's a good thing.

Did you know on grown up phones it's a revolver.

I see it as a revolver. You got a toddler phone o?

still a gun on linux

GAYMERS RISE UP

first time in my life

Are you even old enough to vote?

I agree!

Until pinging is back, fuck ALL admins. Due to reddits obese admins prob leaning left, I'm just going to vote Democrat for the first time in my life.

Until this travesty of justice is fixed and pinging is back, I will convince everyone I know to vote blue.

One for and one against: we have achieved radical centrism.

Jack, if you think you're convincing anybody with this "big tech isn't very powerful or influential at all!" schtick you are an absolute moron.

I think Google is the number 1 lobbyist now?

But watch out for big oil!!!!

I think Google is the number 1 lobbyist now?

You people aren't really big on online searching.

By industry

Although a number of industry associations โ€“ such as the US Chamber of Commerce โ€“ spent more, Google is the largest corporate entity on the list, reflecting both its enormous influence, it's bottomless pockets, and the tech industry's efforts to push back on a growing consensus that the internet is in need of greater regulation.

I know most Trump supporters didn't make it past middle school because you were sent to the coal mines or just decided to start your fent addiction early, but generally you're supposed to link the source of the text you're quoting.

By industry

Oil & Gas $65,710,661 Internet $38,617,500

Also, dismissing "industry associations" or special interest groups from lobbying stats is pathetically dishonest.

REEEE don't say anything bad about Google!!!

Jesus dude I was just making a fun fact quip and you're going over time to try shill for it.

Google shouldn't have to pay anyone when it has people like you out in the wild lmao.

But watch out for big oil!!!!

"I was only pretending to be retarded."

Literally nothing I said was wrong.

Literally everything you say is retarded.

no u

Sorry, but we took a vote and it was unanimous - you are the faggot.

Nobody on this sub really gives a shit what you think, you colossal autist.

Uhh their motto is literally "don't be evil" so it's fine.

No, they changed that, they're free to be evil now.

Ironically, thanks to efforts to make the internet "safe" for the wammens, I think people are starting to get a little concerned that just a handful of companies control the vast majority of internet content and traffic.

Why is a Laura Ingraham tweet flagged as sensitive content? Sheโ€™s a conservatard who mostly just reposts news articles

Protip: sheโ€™s not doing it herself, and yes you can troll people by mass-reporting shit with โ€˜contains a sensitive image.โ€™

Then it's not censorship from twitter.

Uh, its being censored by twitter when its tagged as 'sensitive content' you fucking retard.

And you can see it if you want by clicking a button.

!Still censored you retard.!<

No it's not, you can see it at any time. I'm not sure why conservatives need to invent things for their victim complex.

Not sure how you think censoring things is not censorship. Was it the public education system?

Click button > see tweet. Are you always this mad at false postives?

Id ask if you were born with brain damage or incurred it later in life but its really more of a question for your caretaker.

Why are you so angry at a button? Just click it to see tweets. Why do you have this victim complex?

Herp derp how did a picture of Trump shaking hands with black leadership for urban development get flagged as "sensitive material" idiot?

Their leftard mods on twitter abuse the system to censor anything that goes against their regime.

Herp derp

ew

Their leftard mods

It's an algorithm.

How'd an algorithm decide a PICTURE is sensitive content?

Someone reported it. Do you honestly think there are numerous people moderating 500 million tweets a day?

Why doesn't that happen to anti-Trump posts?

It does

obviously it doesn't. the only one you can trust is alex jones. buy some of his gay frogs supplements.

So they censored it automatically but somehow they didn't censor it?

If you choose to use a setting that twitter gives you, who is doing the censoring?

Right, so it's not censorship, it just hides any totally not censored tweets from the search of the 99.9% of users who never bother changing any defaults.

It's not censorship if you can view the tweet at any point, yes. Hard concept to understand.

If you ignore the fact that the search ignores them and the non-censorship is for completely bogus reasons to begin with it's perfectly fine I suppose.

Literally click a button and find the tweet. Your victim complex blinds you to the fact that twitter alg sometimes gets false positives.

Just like how the government wouldn't be censoring books if they confiscated all the books but you could go read them at any time by visiting the happy time reading vault in D.C.

Gov confiscating all books = click a button

I'm illustrating the ridiculousness of your stance that because something is still available it is not censorship. I'd wager putting a single button between people and content lowers views by at least half.

I'm illustrating the ridiculousness of your analogy.

It's an algorithm.

. . . trained by leftards.

"My company totally isn't super powerful, you guys"

It's a fine line between having different opinions, being aggressively and abusively vocal about them and calling for violence to shut people down.

While mods and admins have a tough time cruiseing through those lines, it becomes very easy to play jump rope with them if you have other motivations.

Reddit creates echo chambers if mods intervene too much or too little. Or it creates a lot of controversial chaos if it is moderated relatively openly.

Twitter is a little better in that sense. You don't have mods to blame there. But, they have their own problems.

Has anybody been suspended for "reverse racism" yet?

Not sure about that, but a bunch of people have been suspended for saying โ€œfuck TERFsโ€ and stuff like that

In our neutral quest for total transparency, we at Twitter have now decided to publish the exact algorithm we have used for years on social media board /r/drama. The algorithm took years for our affirmative action engineers to develop and represents the cutting edge of computer science. Here it is:

+10 ban points if you annoy a celebrity +10 ban points if enough woke twitter leftists spam the report button on multiple of your tweets. +10 ban points if you say Shaun King is white. -30 ban points if you are an A-list celebrity -20 ban points if you are a B-list celebrity -10 ban points if you at least have enough Klout to whip up a mob about "twitter discrimination"

Results: If you got 10 or more ban points, you are banned

Tech people come in two shade. Libertarian pedo and male feminist commies.

Any others ideology are going to get discriminated against.

Eh, the knives are clearly out for the libertarians, especially when they get a bit too vocal about questioning social justice dogma. The James Damore story illustrates that.

James damore was no libertarian, tho. He wasn't fighting to fuck kids, but to remove the femoids.

James Damore was quite literally autistic

my favorite is the retards who say that twitter has a conservative bias and jack has alt-right sympathies

Working the referee is a time-honored tradition.

I should sign up there and post how the next Hitler/Napoleon should invade the West and Russia and better win it all this time, they'd likely ban me.

Yeah, as long as a fascist can call for mass violence in their bio and say shit like "I'll bury you under my farm", but I get permabanned for replying with a joke about cops will shoot their dogs, twitter explicitly endorses nazi viewpoints and hardly tolerates leftist ones.

I wonder why there aren't any right leaning tech powerhouses you guys... Like Twitter is obviously racist towards white Republicans but why hasn't a new Twitter or new Facebook popped up based in Arkansas or West Virginia or something? Then we can truly be free

Please one of the bigly geniuses on the right create a social media platform!! Why is all the technology on the lefts side!?!? Reeeeeee

Because only nerdy people do shit like that and most people on the left are nerds.

Most nerds are incels

Replace nerds with smart people and you are on to something

I wonder why there aren't any right leaning tech powerhouses you guys...

Kinda hard to be a technology innovator when you think that the universe is 6,000 and everything scientists say is part of a conspiracy by nefarious powers to hide the real truth.

Ding ding ding! Because anyone that would claim the right in America is too fucking stupid to write software!

drumpf owned

but why hasn't a new Twitter or new Facebook popped up based in Arkansas or West Virginia or something?

Because when they tried, Apple banned them from the iphone app store for "hate speech."

Isn't this gab.ai?

The same service that Microsoft is threatening the hosting of for not deleting anti-Semitic speech or something? Remember when Cloudflare removed anti-DDOS protection from Stormfront because "fuck nazis"?

The technological hurdles to just making a right-wing equivalent to whatever platform are not trivial. But the main consideration is that even if you aren't no-platformed by whoever provides your infrastructure there generally the demand isn't there to generate anything but a super-cancerous userbase; ie. Voat.

Imagine not being you.

Why do conservatives want to regulate private businesses so badly?

They got assfucked by the invisible hand of the market one time too many
