For what it’s worth I read the whole thing in what felt like one or two minutes and I don’t think I’m a particularly fast reader. I think it looks longer because there are not many blank lines. It seems well written but I guess I do slightly get that AI feeling too, it just might be because he/she is a good writer so now people think good writing is AI, sad it’s coming down to this.
I totally agree with you. I literally made my username “BoycottTwitter” because it’s so important and so basic.
Good point! I fixed the sentence.
I think it’s time to make a serious push into getting people to boycott Microsoft along with OpenAI. Windows 11 is now a bloated surveillance operating system and Office 365 raised their prices to pay for an AI feature based on OpenAI’s LLMs. OpenAI donated $25 million to Trump.
The website you posted has a history of collaborating with other fake news fascist websites.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SouthFront#Disinformation_and_propaganda
In 2016, Finnish journalist Jessikka Aro described SouthFront as “an allegedly citizen-sourced project that looks more like a suspicious information operation”. Describing it as “a fascinating hybrid of revealingly detailed military intelligence and totally bogus stories”, she said that the site’s content centers on “the success of Russia’s armed forces, and showing off Russia’s weapons”.[13]
In 2017, researchers at Oxford University’s Internet Institute studied the collaboration of SouthFront with two US-based fascist fake news sites, Veterans Today and its sister site Veterans News Now.[14][15]
Philip N. Howard, one of the paper’s coauthors, told McClatchy DC that the three websites underlay “an entire ecosystem of junk news about national security issues that is deliberately crafted for U.S. veterans and active military personnel … a complex blend of content with a Russian view of the world – wild rumors and conspiracies”.[16] The Oxford researchers concluded that the three sites were more successful on Twitter than on Facebook, saying “on Twitter there are significant and persistent interactions between current and former military personnel and a broad network of Russia-focused accounts, conspiracy theory focused accounts, and European right-wing accounts.”[14] SouthFront representatives responded to a Politico story about the Oxford study with an email saying they had no connection to Russia’s government, adding that describing them as part of a Kremlin network was “contrary to the principles of freedom of speech and … discriminatory against Russians.”[15]
Hey Bubbles,
I notice you’ve been posting some articles from Sputnik news. Do you know about Sputnik news?
According to https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/sputnik-news/
Sputnik news is a right-wing biased website known for “Russian Propaganda, Conspiracy, Lack of Transparency, Some Fake News”. It’s factual reporting is “very-low” and it was created via a presidential decree by Vladimir Putin.
Some are moving to Bluesky. After this happened Bluesky experienced a surge in registrations according to https://bskycheck.com/stats.php
Then what would?
We need aggressive action against this. Urge every politician you can to make media literacy taught in school. Students must learn how to identify disinformation and propaganda.
Data shows it’s working. Maybe not enough to bring Twitter down right now but hopefully it can die a death of a thousand cuts.
https://bskycheck.com/stats.php. Bluesky was averaging roughly 20000 new users per day. Now we see over 56000 new users on December 23 and over 89000 on December 24.
I’ve been seeing some people say the only reason they’re on Twitter is because they follow some artists who are only on Twitter.
The thing to keep in mind is that not everyone is as informed as we are about Twitter’s Nazi problem. Some people may just follow their favorite artists and celebrities and drown out all the political stuff and not realize that by using Twitter they are helping enrich and sustain a person and a platform that radicalize people and spread Nazi propaganda.
GrapheneOS also has an official Bluesky account. Here’s a link to the same post except you don’t need to visit that nazi-bar website and don’t need to login: https://bsky.app/profile/grapheneos.org/post/3m6fm6vseik27
Soon this data will be collected by far-right oligarchs like Larry Ellison through Oracle. We really need a huge push to urge everyone to stop using TikTok.
Windows 11 is a bloated disaster. I urge everyone to switch to Linux or one of the BSDs.
Also switch away from Microsoft Office and use LibreOffice.
Well then, time to shut down your Meta account if you still have one. Also do likewise for TikTok and Twitter.
Thank you so much for clarifying! Yes, now I understand it’s a powerful thought like they can’t stop me because I live in Sweden, I will keep protesting.
It reminds me of how many countries boycotted South Africa which helped end apartheid.
Right, I better not tell him about chat control.
We’re all in this together in a way, what becomes normalized in one country risks coming for you one day. Do you notice how other countries have Trump copycats? In fact Trump has learned a lot from Hungary. So when something bad happens in one country we must stand against it no matter where we are because sooner or later if we don’t it will come for us.
I see, I guess I’ll have to see if I can find any troubleshooting information or take it up with Zip.
