Alternatively, don’t spend any time out effort on that, except flagging/deleting spam, and take advantage of search functionality to immediately find anything you need later on.

Agreed on the calendar use though.

Generally agree, but I think right wing chuds were the second wave usage trying to co-opt the meaning to be opposite of woke.

Was wondering earlier, why not just President? Why add the “madam”?

I hate that just throwing out all your shit is more cost effective

… Also would be pretty true for long moves.

Automatically figuring the right range and angle to intercept moving things with with a rocket

Why is there an apostrophe after the “M”?

Is this a fedora tipping version of the US?

How does one become trusted? If they regularly review and provide feedback that you agree with it can really speed up the process, even if you’re still double checking.

Any chance this is just an exposure of a built in backdoor?

That’s a much better argument than what’s presented in this meme. There’s at least an argument to claim that the difference is about curtailing foreign interest through ownership. Ownership does heavily influence a platform. Unfortunately that hasn’t prevented Murdock from owning more formal messaging platforms.

On a side note, how do you feel about a handful of corporations controlling and censoring the Internet?

Ok, I agree there’s a reasonable argument in there.

On the one side of the scale is people enjoy it. Maybe that’s enough. I feel similarly about drug policies (that is, people want to use it, consequences are on them, not something that should be forced on them by the state).

I also think it’s legitimate to say if there’s a problem, policy should reflect that problem. The idea that it’s about protecting American money is probably fair too. But those aren’t really arguments in support of tick-tock. Those are arguments that others should be included if there’s legislation. I would love to see something passed that actually protected privacy universally. A hope for constitutional protection there was one of the casualties of the Roe v Wade overturn.

Last thing… a nation protecting it’s interests is pretty legit in terms of legislative justification. One country protecting it’s industry is very common and something both countries in question do all the time. Protecting from foreign interference is a pretty standard requisite for sovereignty. If you want to criticize US for not respecting others, I think you’ve got plenty of evidence. That’s still different than saying a county shouldn’t take steps to protect themselves.
