true, not gang rapes
although its usually a greater number of victims so really they might as well be equal
It's not equal, it's more incidents of it happening. So it's worse as a whole for how many people it harms, while being less disturbing and disgusting on individual incidents.
So. Newest youtube scandal in the works.
They're allowing big companies to remove dislikes on videos to adjust their like to dislike ratio.
remove just dislikes, or remove the like/dislike bar entirely?
I'm honestly surprised youtube still has dislikes at all
is there a source for this?
i'm all for letting youtube kill indy creators so they move off platform
i'm just waiting for the day they manage to ban pewds (unintentionally) and he goes "fuck you" makes his own platform or something.
no, not disable the like/dislike, lots of places have done that.
They're actually REMOVING DISLIKES, while keeping the bar up.
Source: I've seen it firsthand, but if you want other accounts.

“ I’m a liberal because I’m autistic “ by Mathew Rozsa on Salon
Mathew is a liberal because he’s too autistic to get a job. He doesn’t feel like he should learn to understand social norms, and thinks the world should be trained to handle his emotional and mental inadequacies. I guess you could respect his honesty.

Bullshit. My autistic friend looks at the alt-Left and it hurts his head. Their opposition to basic logic makes him cry and he begs to stay on the right.
the left is the party of "the grass looks greener... therefore i am owned greener grass. i don't care if its not greener, give me!"
A lot of people are calling bullshit on this @JustTom
The diablo thing?

According to Google free speech is diastrous.
They complain that by bounding them to first amendment rules would not allow them to censor what they say to be propaganda, hate speech etc.
Yeah. The "Good Censor" bullshit.
Differnt opinions cause conflict, so lets sensor the speech we dont agree with so "all of us" can just get along............
Stupid in my opinion but thats just how some think
Pro-Tip, I don't hate muslims, I don't hate migrants and immigrants, I don't hate LGBT, I don't have feminists. Have any of those come up to me and speak to me rationally, sanely, and even if we disagree, I'll give them a hearty handshake, or even a big hug of acceptance.
What I hate is what many of their leadership/face members are doing which is causing severe damage to the world. And I do mean the WORLD, as they are harming not just the US and the EU, but through the damage they're doing to the superpower nations, they are extending their harm to other countries.
Take someplace like the middle east. Do you really think that having so many people flee their countries is a good thing? The Dalai Lama himself, someone who WAS a persecuted migrant who had to flee his country, has gone on record saying that you shouldn't just run from your country and that's the end of it, but the goal is to return to your homeland and help improve it. (Paraphrasing some here.)
So when I "hate speech" about how migrants should go home, is it really "hate speech" or ... are the lefties ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRKz82v5JQY
(the movie that's from is so goddamn terrible, I completely forgot this scene existed, but it's great to grab out of context, it describes the Left perfectly.)
It reminds me of the only sci-fi troupe with AI. That in order to prevent human suffering, it reasons that the best solution is to kill everyone.
Rule Zero. Of course.
Yeah, we had that idea already you bucket of bolts.
It's called Buddhism.
We removed the kill switch by just respawning them.
or rather, Three Laws, law zero.
Google wants to protect dialogue by ending it.
Unfortunately for google, blockchain propagation of data is quickly being researched and advanced in a way that youtube may soon be ousted.
and we've seen how fast old platforms die when a truly superior competitor shows up.
it's hard to compete with google tho
they're balls deep in the internet infrastructure
many (all?) implementations of blockchain hosting would prevent the removal of illegal material and the enforcement of copyright. i cannot see any infrastructure for such being permitted to exist in the US large scale.
it's not like the feds are just going to shrug and say "welp guess we can't delete all that CP"
they'll go after anyone who hosts the network.
~~I'm fully against hunting down CP~~ (don't mind me, I did a dumb and failed sarcasm attempt due to distraction) and jailing everyone responsible, just like I'm fully against hunting down Isis and murdering every last fucking one of them in the most brutally efficient way our government can do.
But that wasn't the issue under discussion. The issue everyone is currently concerned about is censorship of non-illegal things, which the left has gone crazy on.
yeah, i don't think blockchain hosting is a practical solution to that problem.
It's not. But considering the way they've attacked Gab.com, it's the only solution we currently have barring making our own internet.
it doesn't stop the left from completing their domination of the conventional net, and they'll just enlist the federal government to destroy the blockchain net.
@JustTom ?! What did I miss about CP? Why are you not enthused by the idea of jailing all pedos and child abusers?
