And even if it were the case, he has his supporters and did do some good things.

I dont disagree there. Theres good in the bad.

So there's no reason South Africa shouldn't honor him in some way.

But the sum of the parts sum up to SA becoming alot worse off than it is.

I guess. He is an icon who deserves to be remembered.

I just wish people would also get the whole picture, good and bad

You can say that about alot of people. But it's not a reason to tear down celebrations in his name.

Or to tear down statues.

I just think hes overrated, thats all.

i need to get rid of my magic cards

ive got like 10-20k$ worth

I dont like where this narative is heading

And its comming from multiple outlets

Also when they " demote " certain content they are talking about ppl like Tim as well

😡

its all planned

Well facebook and youtube are in a hard place with this

If they straight censor it could trigger exodus of ppl

So they do all these half measures

This narrative is ultimately the goal. The legacy media and powers that be want to reassert control of the internet and stamp out any opposing narratives.

They can't do it on their own and they don't want to pick a fight with the government (due to the 1st amendment) so they go after the social media companies instead.

I get the impression alot of the base employees at YT and FB want to play censor but the leadership is still libertarian.

Well its also economic

They need the ad bucks

Compare Reddit 2012 to Reddit 2018.

They're hitting middle strides. Trying to take pressure off.

Well the discussion is about curration and its scale

So what is facebook going to start basically shadowbanning people? I find that far worse than outright censorship and banning

Some people say they already do.

Its harder to prove

They do it in some cases

Facebook is a very bad actor on many occasions

They like to give info to dictators and such

People have been forcing narratives to enact change through cultural artificial selection for a long time now, but at the risk of sounding hyperbolic lately it's been ramping up to cultural genocide, or memocide I suppose

Yep

Breitbart is always sketchy, but they claim there have been pages banned.

The Gateway Pundit is also fairly sketchy but are saying they are seeing massive drops in engagement.

Not sure how accurate this is, but there's not much a priori reason to doubt Facebook is playing games either.
