Small issues . Lmao ok. Tell me what the the villages are like in rural China. Have the collective welfare trickled down to them yet?

And open access to information via the internet and open speech are one of the main pillars of a successful society, and neither states have that. Who cares if you’re my comrade of I can’t speak against you if need be or have the ability to refute your information with research.

China has one of the fastest growing numbers of millionaires in the world yet its farmers and factory workers are still poor as shit, how’s that collectivism? It’s just state capitalism

Yeah every one I’ve come across in the last few days have sounded like children. Or maybe they didn’t train hard enough on their language skills at troll camp

It vibrates when you have a bug

Good job trolling an autistic person who can’t read another person’s intentions. Big winner there. Like the village champ. Lmao

But you act like I worship them or something. I hate them too, I just think they’re not as important as we make them. Facebook shouldn’t be a public utility because it would still be detrimental to society. People don’t need it. But the internet itself, the wires, the protocols are. They should be as public as roads.

But Twitter? What do you do with that? And should we even care about it? I’ve never even had an account for it ever in its existence.

Edit: honestly, I just don’t think the government should have any control or input to information that is available. And big tech shouldn’t be cozy with them, like TikTok, meta, and the trump admin now. That makes them compromised in my eyes.

Also, again, any source of information that consists of an algorithmic feed beyond date sorting is bad for you. Thats every social media silo.

I’m not even saying that. Lmao y’all really projected way further. All I’m saying, if you don’t like someone’s product or maintaining of it, don’t use it. The internet and social media silos aren’t the same thing lol

Nobody needs social media. There are a tons of other tools that replace what little functionality they have. They’re just not one click and all your friends aren’t on them.

Their monopoly would be useless if we made it so. Like who gets most of their information from these places when you have the entire web?

Get smarter about your information sources. But maybe I should be nicer, because you could have been born at a time when social media and platforms had become the internet, but for me, it’s always been just a sub block of it.

Because if it’s mine, I can do what I want with it. Did you build it? Contribute anything? It’s only communistic if you actually contribute. People often forget that part of communism. You have to contribute just as much to have a say. Thats why it’s for the WORKERS. So if you aren’t involved, you don’t have a say to my property.

Also, again, your point is moot in the face of my initial comment. The internet is a public utility (Atleast it should be). Facebook is a private one, and isnt yours. You have no right to it if you didn’t contribute

Because one is public access to the web, the other is a private platform, and not the web. Facebook and Instagram aren’t the web and aren’t open access to the world’s information. It’s like saying your rights are being trampled on if Walmart bans you from their store. You still have access to food.
