The rest of the world isn't coming to help as long as we only hurt those within our borders. No one stood up to the Nazis until they started moving on other countries, even though they were already known to be committing atrocities. The rest of the world is just going to cut us off and let us burn, most of the world hates the U.S. and only plays nice for economic and military reasons.

Kids are making deepfakes of each other, and laws aren’t keeping up in c/technology@lemmy.world

Refuge here, moved to joined a new server, couldn't get my subscriptions moved over so I just resubscribed to each one manually, annoying but not the end of the world.

I am looking into the idea of hosting my own instance on something like a $5 linod just to make sure this never happens again. But I don't even know if it's worth it, or possible with that. You can tell I've only had the idea not the motivation.
