How funny would it be if it leads to a shit show where actual journalists start demanding their fair share of advertising generated off their articles?
Reddit can beat mods because of money, but these giant media conglomerates both have money and are hurting their own advertising numbers because 99% of redditors never read the article. They have motivation and opportunity to get legal
The BJP government has said they will press charges against the high ranking BJP politician who sexually abused the wrestlers...
I hope I'm wrong, but I fully expect the BJP to investigate themselves and declare they found no wrong doing.
There's two reasons Biden said it was a good thing
The military industrial complex will make a bunch of money off India.
Modi's desire to fuck over his own citizen to grab the title of "the world's sweatshop" from China.
We can do better than someone willing to pretend Modi is a decent human and not a racist monster.
Unfortunately our next presidential election the choice will be Biden or trump/DeSantis.
So we need to wait another 5 years before that's possible.
It made sense trump and Modi got along.
But fucking embarrassing Biden acts like a far right religious authoritarian is in anyway a decent person.
They both just want India to become the world's next sweatshop
Pretty sure they're out of air by now.
Even if they made it to the surface, you can't open it from the inside. There's no rescue mission, just recovery
Volume, and diversity of opinions.
On Reddit I browsed "new" or "rising" and just subs I was subscribed too was enough for a steady stream of content.
On Lemmy even including all instances, there's not a whole lot on "new".
Which is good, because it makes it easier to find communities to subscribe too and also the problematic ones so you can block them and never see them again.
But low users mean most communities are dead. There's a Fantasy Football sub for example, there's 3 other people on it tho, so it won't really be very useful this season.
I mean, if it's real bad shit like violence, that's where FBI comes in, right?
Not sure if the ACLU would be able to do anything about hate speech.
But bad actors would have to run a shell game of go between instances to recruit. And they've been doing that shit for decades anyways. Hell, it's the same thing as under 18 punk shows back in the day when nazis hung in the parking lot trying to give booze/drugs to kids.
Like, imagine if someone said we can't have phones because assholes can also buy a phone...
The largest (at least well funded) socialist organization in the world is the US military...
If everyone got the shit I got as a disabled vet, we'd all be a lot better off and the only negative would be rich people have a slightly lower high score that's 100% irrelevant to how their quality of life is.
Reddit does it with Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tumblr...
Some of the bigger communities is literally just screenshots of what people say other places.
It would be pretty funny to see an instance that just pulls posts from subs and posts them to Lemmy. Not direct links to reddit, just copy the link/pic/video
Even if they do, every article about Twitter comes with:
This is worse, because reddit is saying if anything was wrong, they would have responded. So it looks like reddit just agrees with anything that doesn't get a response.
