I mean, one issue people had with NN was censorship.

2018-01-10 07:35:58 UTC  

But i argued that Google also does that, they said it was different.

2018-01-10 07:36:57 UTC  

It's kind of funny.
The same people that got mad at the bakery for not making the cake...
Then turn around when this kind of stuff happens, and then says "but Google/Twitter/Facebook is a private company!!"

2018-01-10 07:37:02 UTC  

But well... Now its just straight up lying

2018-01-10 07:38:00 UTC  

I mean, im more worried about how significant Google is when it comes to us as a culture. Since everyone uses it, it means most of our perspective is filtered through the lens of a corporation as opposed to well, multiple facets

2018-01-10 07:38:35 UTC  

Yeah, I get that, which is why I primarily use stuff that isn't related to Google, for the most part.

2018-01-10 07:39:26 UTC  

I guess I can't post pics here?

2018-01-10 07:39:39 UTC  

In shitposting I think

2018-01-10 07:39:48 UTC  

But dunno bout now, can you post now?

2018-01-10 07:39:53 UTC  

Did you try?

2018-01-10 07:42:53 UTC  

It acts like it is uploaded but doesn't show up

2018-01-10 07:43:09 UTC  

Tried 3 times

2018-01-10 07:43:17 UTC  

Try posting in shitposting for now

2018-01-10 07:46:09 UTC  

Huh, well i use DuckDuckGo

2018-01-10 07:46:41 UTC  

So I have no idea whats going on Google until it pops up on KiA

2018-01-10 07:47:12 UTC  

Well... I get most my news from KiA and some indie journalists like Tim

2018-01-10 07:48:22 UTC  

How often is Snopes actually right considering its funding

2018-01-10 07:48:31 UTC  

I mostly stick to independent creators like Tim, yeah.

2018-01-10 07:48:50 UTC  

Well, for urban myths I used to bilieve

2018-01-10 07:48:53 UTC  

Or politifact for that matter?

2018-01-10 07:48:55 UTC  

But I kept seeing political stuff

2018-01-10 07:49:29 UTC  

I mean, one thing I usually point out is the Snopes entry on Ben Carson

2018-01-10 07:49:46 UTC  

How he supposedly found like what again? 500 something dollars not accounted for?

2018-01-10 07:50:19 UTC  

Listed it as false since the money wasnt there anymore. Basically said it was false since he didny actually find the money, only found that it missing.

2018-01-10 07:50:48 UTC  

Lol, even had the gall to tell me that the site was listed as unbiased.

2018-01-10 07:51:45 UTC  

Yeah that is doubtful. Look at any fact-checking they did on Hillary and see how true it actually is

2018-01-10 07:52:19 UTC  

Still, I had to give up my reliance on supposed fact checkers

2018-01-10 07:52:20 UTC  

They write almost an entire article on proving a statement true and then in their summary they say well there's this one little tiny bit that is not 100% accurate so the whole article is false

2018-01-10 07:52:46 UTC  

The only fact checker I trust is myself also

2018-01-10 07:53:06 UTC  

lol, i bought into too many falsehoods that I dont even know

2018-01-10 07:53:42 UTC  

I used to be supportive of leftist policies until I learnt how they do not work.

2018-01-10 07:53:55 UTC  

The blowback effect is humungous.

2018-01-10 07:54:08 UTC  

Oh many leftist policies will work you just have to pay 200% more taxes

2018-01-10 07:54:33 UTC  

Not to mention Bernie's idea of a one payer medical system. I would hate to see our tax level after that went into effect

2018-01-10 07:54:55 UTC  

How does every other western nation manage to pull it off, then?

2018-01-10 07:55:12 UTC  

Being really homogenous?

2018-01-10 07:55:20 UTC  

Their medical system isn't as good as ours because there isn't any need for competition

2018-01-10 07:55:22 UTC  

Culturally especially

2018-01-10 07:55:59 UTC  

I mean, look at most european countries, most countries are mostly homogenous cuturally and ethnically.

2018-01-10 07:56:32 UTC  

So, you're saying ethnostates work? <:hmkGrin:284219474440355840>

2018-01-10 07:56:46 UTC  

In the US its not as easy to implement a one size fits all basically.
