Censorship is when the French ask "what are you doing?"

100% "X is an organized crime group". if you count brainwashing as a crime, which i do.

they're manipulating public opinion towards what the rich want to hear. it's all propaganda.

elon musk bought twitter to conduct "social engineering" after doing classical engineering before at tesla. it's all just a way to control what people think, and it's partially working. the people need to get off commercial social media and use something community-hosted, like the fediverse. to reduce the tinkering with recommendation algorithms and also to reduce the bot army.

But Twitter censors all kinds of posts? There is no free speech on Twitter. Just try posting the word cisgendered and see what happens.

us only likes their own censorship

[–] letsgo2themall@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

Twitter only allows nazi speech now.

The US Administration, more importantly a branch of the department of state, condemns French inquiry.

A lot of the USA are cheering the French on.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

It is not censorship. This is not a government telling you what to publish or not. This is just finding out how a company is abusing its product to influence politics.

Why are they defending an app/website that has essentially become a knockoff of Stormfront?

[–] cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

because the us government is essentially a knockoff of stormfront

[–] SpiceDealer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Couldn't agree more.

A French Inquiry...

"Did you ehhhhhh.... do ze crime?"

"Non"

"Par Excellence! Time for some coffee and cigarettes!"

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I hear cigarettes have ironically fallen out of popularity in France, despite it being seen as culturally significant in the past.

[–] Batman@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Could call it a... French inquisition

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Well nobody would expect that.

[–] Batman@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

They never do...
