Censorship… we all love censorship, right?

This is what happens when you burn all your bridges. I’m American myself and to be brutally honest, I hope most of the free world will continue to refuse requests to export to us.

Part of me sympathizes with the guy, but this was reckless

Who’s ready to go all Office Space on these things?

I suppose you guys have never seen LaserDiscs before. Disc rot is nothing new.

I don’t really trust large companies in general if we’re gonna be completely honest. This political situation is just making that mistrust worse.

See… I’d genuinely like to believe you, but you highly overestimate just how aware the average American is about the situation. Pretty much everybody outside the US gets it though.

You tug on the leash too many times and eventually the dog is going to turn on you

We were brought up being told how great this country is.

Clearly that was a whole lot of bullshit

A lot of us are figuring that out the hard way

We’re not going to have that for too much longer in the US…

Well… that’s just going to be most American sites going forward. That’s why ultimately platforms like Lemmy are so important. What a lot of people here in the States don’t realize is that this is a war on information.

Unfortunately I can barely find people online that use Lemmy

Nope. But right now our state is being occupied by Nazis…

Good. Kill the disease on this country right at the source

As much as I hate to say it, I fully agree. We need something drastic to happen so that the population will open its eyes.

On a completely separate topic, I think states need to become a lot more independent from the federal government. I’m in NY for example and I’ve never felt prouder of my state than right now

As somebody from the US, I can’t wait to see our country fall. The world isn’t going stand by and let us fuck with them anymore

Referring to Canada as the “51st State” and their prime minister as “governor” is a direct attack and invalidation of Canada, its culture, and its people’s distinct identity. This isn’t just about sovereignty. This is about us trying to erase them

Well… of course they are. We’re threatening their right to exist. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t necessarily always see eye to eye with Canada and its people, but this is beyond fucked up.
