Speaking of Nepenthe:

wait can't that premise be argued to be brainwashing supposedly adult bluey enjoyers children to settle for less and become good little drones in the dystopia where they never seek advancement

oh yeah, family and community are enough, yeah sure, stay right where you are forever

Women should stay in the home, minorities should stay in their communities, social mobility is corrupting, we are progressives.

[benji]

But none of those gross cishet breeder families pls.

The blueys excuse is that they are watching the show with their children, so maybe the Blueys if they are not bullshiting.

Volkswagen is not trying to undermine our democracy. Volkswagen does not own a social media platform that's a safe space for Nazis.

Buying a Tesla in 2024 is a uniquely poisonous purchasing decision that many of us are not going to make, and there's no whataboutism that's gonna move the needle on that.

You may want to take a look at the Palestinian threads on the site you’re posting on. Last I looked they were claiming that Jewish owned media like NYT can no longer be trusted to report the facts…

The thread is largely about tiktok, but Jesus fucking Christ. PBS does a whole documentary on kidnaped children and what amounts to ethnic cleansing and pretty much nobody gives a rat's ass. It's mainstream news though, so that probably explains it.

Putin's rhetoric when it comes to the Ukraine was has been blatantly genocidal since day 1, but people still go on about security concerns or de-nazification or whatever other excuses Putin uses to justify his shit.

Nobody actually cares about innocent people, it's all about ideology.

I'm so tired.

I think I DMed you a bit ago, but I can tell you this bullshit propaganda isn't allowed on tiktok. It's actively hunted down and removed. Some shit is gonna slip through but I hope people report it in that case.

The reports about the children being kidnapped is of course allowed because it's fucking true.

The shit I've seen man

Oh, I know but I also know there's a lot of nonsense accounts allowed to stay up despite you guys trying your best.

Unfortunately some people have learned how skirt stuff.

Imma dm you again.

So much weirdness here:

1. Why the fuck is B-Dumbs derailing a thread about TikTok with completely unrelated shit?
2. Is Fiction a TikTok moderator?
3. Why did B-Chuds change his name to all lower case? Punished B-Fats arc?

[Boredfrom]

Maybe he has mixed feelings about Hamas club taking over but the only angle he has, for being a bitch, is criticizing TikTok for misinformation and the true information about a genocide getting buried.

The only thing for sure is that he wants to rant when and to whenever he feels like (as long it doesn’t piss his shitty online friends).

All hail to CNN and  AlJazeera.

Do you think marrec would sign up if I doxed Fiction? I don't want that kind of violent transphobia here.

[benji]

A generation of people starts disagreeing with your government so you have to keep them in line. Gotta keep the bombing a foreign country streak going.

Every social media company needs to be broken up, not just TikTok.

Not engaging with the former, completely agree on the latter.

What would breaking up social media companies even mean?

The NYT does incredible reporting but simultaneously has a horrible, horrible history with inaccuracy and manufacturing consent regarding foreign policy. Did we completely forget what they did during the Iraq War? In fact, it's been on an unhinged transphobic spree of late.

Unhinged spree!

This whole thing reeks of silencing free speech.

Will be a sad day to see TikTok banned, or controlled by the US. It's one of the few outlets online that's a positive space for queer folk and I dread it either disappearing or getting shaped to match the bigotry Instagram Reels has.

All this energy to ban a fucking app while our citizens remain unhoused, food insecure, and forced into a lifelong existential crisis by exorbitant health insurance costs. We live in such a shitty country.

Dumb legislators not solving impossible problems.

This all also misses the point. The tiktok thing is a rider attached to a bill designed to help these people, because the GOP are assholes, and the fact is that nobody gives a shit.

We talk about genocide and all that stuff, literally protesting anyone with a finger tip's involvement, and so often shit like this not only goes ignored but totally rationalized by the very people who should be standing against it.

I'm just tired of everyone's hypocrisy, people pretending to care, and everyone acting holier than thou.

It doesn't have to overtly lie to inflate and misconstrue what's actually happening. Can you slip into nonsense on TikTok? Sure. Is it far easier to avoid the nonsense, conspiracy theories, and racism on Tiktok than it is elsewhere? Also yes, which is why I have to spend days beating back alt-right bullshit on Youtube any time I glance at a gun video for five seconds, why it took the entire length of the past six months to get Threads to stop feeding me pro-genocide posts (of which it's still feeding me, just not nearly as frequent), and why, even though I filter past those, I regularly can find car accident and obvious "that person's dead" videos on Instagram but get nothing of the sort on TikTok, even though i'm following the same exact people and tend to engage with the same kinds of content.

Hell, more importantly, I share and create stories of music all the damn time on Instagram and very rarely come across music Reels, I can't go 22 seconds on TikTok without coming across a new artist to fill my Spotify playlist with.

[Daffy Duck]

The main reason why the younger generation is so aware and angry about the current genocide in Palestine is because of social media allowing them to see what it actually happening. And that is one of the main reasons the US is trying to ban the app.

"The only reason young people care about Palestine is because of propaganda pushed on a Chinese social media app" doesn't hit quite the same

Remember during Covid they’d ban people for conspiracy theories?

Well this is some dumb fucking conspiracy theory and zeocunt should eat a ban.

And thank you to Era. If it wasn't for being able to log on and read and participate in the daily activities of this forum, the Retro Portables thread, emulation threads, occasional news threads, etc. I wouldn't have a healthy distraction from my life and I wouldn't have had nearly as much enriching conversation in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Era, for providing me a space to be me and to talk with you guys during a terrible year for myself.

Your addiction to Era enabled your behavior for long, and you don’t seem to have grown at all. The fact that you are see that wasting the money you don’t have in Portable Gaming PC makes me think you are huge scumbag.

Wasn’t he the dickhead who spent 1,000’s of dollars on a Pc to play switch games at 4K60? Yeah I’m guessing he was the fucking problem all along

We're slowly seeing the process of what happens when both sides take it too far and we land at an acceptable 'center' through open debate and free speech.
A lot of people decided to draw the line at murdering and raping teenagers at a music festival, feeding troubled kids puberty blockers, allowing the Russians to pillage Kyiv or setting yourself on fire in front of a court house.

IRL drama? A lot of stuff in those threads get borderline worrisome.

I assume someone who threw a huge fit like "this forum's stance on palestine is so bad, I demand that you ban me" and when they didn't get banned fast enough they started taking matters into their own hands, until the mods finally saw their request and did it

Its also the smarter way of removing yourself, because the admins there dont do shit to remove your posts or scrub your data, they just remove the username but leave it with a uniquely identifying number, so if anyone anywhere has ever quoted you your entire post history is still there.

Can't really blame anyone for not wanting to be associated with era anymore
