It’s a repost of an old meme. Idk if that disqualifies it for your award

Lol was that hashtag ironic? You know “not all men” is frequently referenced as a critique about men who can’t hear criticism of gender equality because “not all men”? As a cishet dude: calm down, their point is valid and your reaction is cringe

I never said bots were the problem

it’s super easy to program bots to imitate people

Considering how dense you are tho

Hmm…

On boy are you dense. I agreed if your theory that bots are to blame is correct you have a legitimate complaint I dispute that and you got really confused and angry saying I don’t understand instead of anything of substance. Do you know what projection is?

If you think it’s bots then that seems like a more legitimate complaint

An easy way to win popularity contests is to stuff the ballot. On the internet, you can do this with bots

You really need to work on your communication and reading comprehension buddy.

Maybe try a mirror bud

I did not misunderstand your bot theory but good to see you prove my “even if I agree” point lmao

This site is maybe the worst echo chamber I’ve ever experienced it’s just one that suites my opinions. Hell even if I agree with the echo chamber but I’m the wrong way it gets rejected aggressively. If you think it’s bots then that seems like a more legitimate complaint but if it’s a repost getting enough upvotes and is not weighted for controversy then it’s actually the terminally online people that know every post suffering with their obsession and not the community at large. I completely disagree with that theory

Then down vote it? Isn’t that the point of that button? I’m assuming a big problem with Reddit was they wanted controversial posts seen which took away from the power of down voting but hopefully Lemmy doesn’t? I don’t actually know though

Fine, from Red Notes very own eula, your can’t:

distorts national history and historical figures, harms national feelings, and undermines national unity;

You cannot disagree with the states narrative

Well you’re clearly a nato spy doing a counter psyop so I can ignore anything you say too. See how dumb that sounds?

You understand my claim is that there topic gets censored right? None of that is even attempting to be evidence to the contrary. I guess you’re trying to say they’re stomping down on lies spreading? That’s still censorship and I am still highly sceptical of a state that does that. It’s so weird that you want to eat that up. You weren’t there. You have to, again like I said, make assumptions about which sources to believe

There’s a concerning amount of gaslighting going on in this thread. There absolutely was and is silencing going on around Tiananmen Square: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests_and_massacre#Contemporary_issues

You’re also making assumptions though. And like pointed out elsewhere, mentioning Tiananmen Square still gets silenced so we’re kinda forced to assume one way or another and I generally don’t believe the state that is doing the silencing. That’s not racist and it’s messed up to jump to that accusation so quickly

That’s just not true. Plenty of people have made a career in comp sci entirely to make money. What are you talking about?
