• Facebook goes mental

    Apparently, even mentioning Linux can get people banned on FB.
    (Reports are mixed.)

    (I guess we need to remove the Facebook ethernet driver from
    the Linux kernel? Lol.)

    Seriously though -- it seem like this is most likely a
    problem with their AI moderation. Meta is a member of
    the Linux Foundation, and uses Linux extensively.

    This isn't just an "own goal", it's as if they hauled-off
    and gave themselves a black eye.

    Politics aside, anyone who is on FB or just about any social media platform
    is an idiot with far too much time on their hands.

    They're not censoring Linux; they are apparently censoring DistroWatch
    though.

    And speaking of censorship and the Cancel Culture Regime. Apparently Debian finds freedom of speech dangerous to their "core values" and have officially withdrawn from TwitterX. Woke idiots.

    Unsurprisingly, the people behind Debian are choosing to remain tone
    dead to the winds of change sweeping society right now. Despite it being inconvenient to them, the reality is that conservatism not only won, but
    it quickly becoming the default position. Nobody even wants to hear
    about what the "progressive" "liberal" "social democrats" think because
    they have not only completely discredited themselves, it has become
    clear to even the dumbest elements of society that they fabricate

    remaining on the fringe because some faggots claim their feelings are hurt.

    Clearly such things are outside your experience, so if you want
    to talk about "misnaming", you go right ahead -- and everybody[*]
    will laugh at you.

    [*] ... who matters

    So why do you hold truck with bigots, Ron, if you're not a "MAGA
    drone", so-called? Even so, I didn't accuse you of being one,
    but quoting one incessantly. What a mystery to unravel!

    Amendment XIV
    Section 1.

    [...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
    abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
    United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
    life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
    nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
    protection of the laws.

    Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are

    Much like Reddit bans anyone who shows even a hint of conservatism,
    BlueSky seems to be doing the same. Those legitimately looking for a conversation will stick to X and will have to swallow their pride if
    they are bombarding by opposing opinions. However, it's not the opposing opinions that bother them; it's the fact that they no longer have the
    power to punish anyone for daring to speak them.

    For a real laugh check out Bluesky (https://bsky.app/) which is the current gathering place for unhinged progressives.
    As a constitutional libertarian I prefer more centrist candidates and do not like far right or left ones.
    Sadly during the last several election cycles we have had to choose the candidate
    who is the least worse.
    That is not a good thing.

    Agreed. Control freaks freak out when they can't control. They're sometimes called "Karens." I don't know how that name got used, but I know what they mean when they use it. I've seen these crazy people freaking out.

    I was banned from two professional wrestling websites for pointing out
    that women will get seriously injured if the "sport" accepts men who
    identify as women to wrestle against them. It's homophobic to worry that
    a man's superior strength might result in a woman never walking again,
    after all.

    These people are monsters and I will never give them an inch.

    They're the same fucking people from X/Twitter, who moved there,
    because of your buddy Elon the fascist dipfuck asshole.

    Nobody _moved_ to Twitter, they were already there. They were simply
    banned or shadowbanned for expressing conservative thoughts for years
    and encouraged to move elsewhere. The problem is that every other
    platform was exactly the same way. Enter Gab which promised to respect
    free speech. However, even that wasn't enough for you and your
    tyrannical faggot friends. You did everything to force stores to ban
    their app and scoured the site looking for people to doxx to hurt their

    Biden deported a lot more than Trump without Trump's deportation theater.

    So why did it happen? Seems the shift from proper fact-checking of

    So-called “freedom of speech absolutism” (as defined by the anti-woke

    And speaking of censorship and the Cancel Culture Regime. Apparently Debian
    finds freedom of speech dangerous to their "core values" and have officially
    withdrawn from TwitterX. Woke idiots.

    https://micronews.debian.org/

    Unsurprisingly, the people behind Debian are choosing to remain tone
    dead to the winds of change sweeping society right now. Despite it being
    inconvenient to them, the reality is that conservatism not only won, but
    it quickly becoming the default position. Nobody even wants to hear

    remaining on the fringe because some faggots claim their feelings are hurt.

    Maybe it's time for a fork. Hopefully this is just the morons at the top

    Yokoscotty seems to enjoy living in an echo chamber.

    That's all they can handle and why they're leaving TwitterX in droves. It's
    no longer simply an echo chamber, where anyone who disagrees with them is
    "canceled." They can't stand someone believing something other than what

    Except in the old Twitter if someone made a good point to counter the Woke

    Absolute fact and a widely reported one.

    Much like Reddit bans anyone who shows even a hint of conservatism,

    I was banned from two professional wrestling websites for pointing out
    that women will get seriously injured if the "sport" accepts men who
    identify as women to wrestle against them. It's homophobic to worry that
    a man's superior strength might result in a woman never walking again,
    after all.

    These people are monsters and I will never give them an inch.

    The most obvious truths are "controveresial" to these brain-dead, Woke morons.

    The wrestler in question was some poorly disguised man named Nyla Rose <https://www.ringsidenews.com/2019/10/26/nyla-rose-addresses-fans-who-have-yet-to-accept-her-for-being-transgender/>.
    Clearly, the size alone should suggest that this demented man is likely
    to injure a few women. After all, even in the WWE, an actual woman of
    that size was shitcanned for a while because she was inadvertently
    injuring the other wrestlers. However, the well-being of women is less important than the feelings of fake women, at least in the minds of
    these woke clowns.

    Even Bill Maher admitted that the amount of people allowed to enter the
    United States during Biden's presidency was higher than Bush, Obama and
    Trump. Even if he were to actually deport some, which he didn't, the
    number of illegals in the country only increased. In fact, since COVID,
    there has been _no_ net gain of jobs for American citizens whereas the
    number of jobs created for illegals was spectacular. Whether these brain-damaged progressive liberal social democrats want to admit it or
    not, what they're advocating is a new form of serfdom.

    Trump? He put the kibosh on the bipartisan deal for handling immigration.

    Even if they don't vote, they're cheap labour who will allow

    benefit in any way from the presence of these illegals, no matter how
    they spin it.

    What dream is that? The newsgroup still exists but there are 0 posts.

    Mark my words: Farley Flud will be arguing with himself in that newsgroup.

    He won't stay there long when he finds how "popular" he really is.

    Maybe he should invite Snit Michael Glasser Prescott Computer Guy to
    hang around. At least in that case, he can be assured that there will be
    a lot of posts. Every one of his sentences will be scrutinized and
    replied to, but the level of activity should make him happy.
