Facebook does the same tracking and data harvesting. Is Facebook up to be banned? It isn't the tracking and data harvesting.

Yeah, so prepare for battle between people who want to tell you that their empire is better.

So does facebook, twitter, google, microsoft, and pretty much every mobile app development shop.

The US is doing it just fine on our own.

Hell, an election here just voted in fascism like its the 1920s again.

China cannot put me in jail. The US can.

The senate, and SCOTUS are verrrry democratic.

Not having primaries for either of the two available parties is very democratic.

The electoral college is the most democratic way to make sure the minority voice maintains a dictatorship.

North Korea is also. Democratic Republic too!

So much good, amirite?

[email protected]

Not only on american citizens...

It was being taken down on insta.

Bruh, facebook just changed their terms of service to be pro US right wing propaganda...

[email protected]

China also covers up genocides... as does the US... As does Russia, as does almost every nation-state.

Id rather listen to China's own words: https://www.cpiml.net/liberation/2020/08/chinas-concentration-camps-for-uyghurs-in-chinas-own-words

Technically true. But instead of two-party system, they get one-party system. Decision is overrated anyways!

Hey now! The US is much more democratic, because we get to choose between two hand picked selections from our oligarchs.

The Tiktok ban was mainly instigated because tiktok spread news about the genocide in Gaza

[email protected]

That's not what the meme is about. It's about the company collecting data and giving it to their government

[email protected]

But they claim that China banning the apps is authoritarian. The hypocrisy isnt in banning the app, it's in their claims about motivation to do so.

Actual regulations on data privacy and algorithmic manipulation. It's not that complicated. The EU figured it out. Fuck me, my own country, Brazil, a third world hellhole, figured it out. We have very strict rules on data protection.

Ofc, this would never happen because 1. Big corpos own the US government and actual regulation on privacy would hurt THEM, and 2. The US Government actually WANTS algorithmic manipulation to happen, except they want THEIR algorithmic manipulation and not anyone else's.
