Which only works with an educated and informed base of voters. Which is probably why the people who corrupt all forms of government spend so much effort in making sure we remain ignorant and misinformed.

It's not knowing what we want, we all know what we WANT, it's knowing what we NEED. We WANT to have more than anybody else (More money, more power, more ... things)... But it's not what we NEED. We need food, water, air, a safe place to sleep, love.
But we instead spend a bunch of time, resources and energy on things we don't really need, and convince everyone else that THINGS define our worth, that we can only be good if others are worse off. We promote greed and hatred. We APPLAUD that shit and then try to emulate it. It's not what we need though.
Hodor!

If someone makes a federated porn app, they could call it "Feddish" ... just give me a mention in the credits.
I started using an ad blocking DNS on top of browser extension blockers, and it's such a beautiful thing.
So I deleted all my posts and comments 4 days ago now, and they have stayed deleted. I'm thinking if you leave your account active for a while afterwards, it doesn't trigger the "undelete" action, if it was ever a real thing. It was highly possible that peoples stuff they thought was being undeleted, was actually just the result of more private subreddits being opened back up. Content you have in a private subreddit will NOT be deleted, as it can't be accessed.
I reviewed the Reddit app at 1* because it honestly is a steaming pile of shit sorry excuse for an app, especially considering how long it's been in this state now without any improvement.
Ad companies can't handle the idea that people don't want to be hit with ads every 5 minutes. "Well, it's just BAD ads"... no, it's having my experience constantly interrupted.
Reddit: You can't be private, people need to see the content, reopen or else!
TIHI: No.
Reddit: Fine, mods are gone and we've reopened the community. People who want to be mods speak up
Crickets: Cricket noises
Reddit: This sub is unmoderated, so it's now banned so nobody can see it
So... Reddit just reclosed the sub they said MUST be open.
Sound logic. Real class act.
Whenever people say "Somebody should do something!" they very rarely ever add "and the somebody is me"
not including calls to kbin.social? Curious how they factor in, since they seem to be getting pretty big.
