Big Tech oligarchy is incompatible with democracy.
Meta employees admitted the US corporation censored the Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp accounts of Brazil's left-wing President Lula da Silva in the lead-up to this month's election.
Meta also promoted the accounts of far-right pro-US candidate Flávio Bolsonaro.
Meta claimed this was supposedly because of "technical issues".
But what this really shows is how real democracy is impossible when US Big Tech corporations are used to manipulate elections around the world, to put in power right-wing US puppets who will sell out their country to US corporations and the US government (see: the recent US electoral interference in Colombia, Honduras, Peru, Argentina, etc.)
The CIA previously focused on organizing military coups to overthrow independent left-wing leaders and install right-wing pro-imperialist ones. Now it's much easier: Silicon Valley helps the US empire carry out soft coups by manipulating public opinion and interfering in elections.

I’m laughing at the sheer stupidity of imaging that the French didn’t know how to burn and break stuff at their protests before *immigrants* showed up and taught them how to do it.

Considering the Muslim Brotherhood has never enslaved humans in the US,
I think it’s fair to ask all candidates if they disavow the Confederacy.
Now that @AbdulElSayed has been asked to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood because of his mother’s alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood before he was born, will we be asking Donald Trump to disavow the Ku Klux Klan because of his father’s alleged ties to the KKK in the 1920s?

Furries when the Revolution™️ is at hand
Could have Édith Piaf singing on top of the Eiffel Tower with a cigarette in one hand and a decapitated head in the other and it would still somehow be less French than this photo
Community note
The photo in this post is AI-generated, not a real photograph of protests in Paris. It edits a 2015 image from Yerevan, Armenia, replacing the protester with the Pink Panther.

The way Abdul brings up the Constitution immediately because he wants to KO the twerp 6 minutes later with a reverse UNO card question about inserting Christian doctrine into the Constitution is genius at work and an endorsement of the Rhodes scholarship screening process

nearly every botted AI reply on here comes from an account promoting tech, crypto, business, finance, or porn. it's never something like "Save the Wetlands" or "Friends of the Public Library."

saw an AI video on Instagram of an elderly man peacefully sewing t-shirts on an old Singer machine, giving the impression that the company's products are thoughtfully made in this way. we are reaching new levels of phoniness with brands using "craft washing" to sell crappy goods

Abdul El-Sayed was born in Michigan. He doesn’t have to “assimilate,” you racist, Islamophobic fucks.
