    raised an uproar on the X platform on Friday

    Why are people still using that platform? All the head Nazi has to do is tell some underling to delete/hide your tweet, or block you forever…

    “raised an uproar on the X platform”

    He’s using the fascist’s social media site to condemn what the fascist administration is doing?

        He’s using the platform where Nazis are, where the administrator of the site can (and regularly does) amplify the Nazis, and silence the non-Nazis, where the good people have already all left.

        Mastodon would work, but not just Mastodon, also post to Bluesky, to his own blog, to Substack, to Threads, to Hacker News, to Face, to Instant Gran, To Medium-large, to wherever. Broadcast everywhere. Don’t just post on the Nazi site.

    “anymore.” Honey, you haven’t been a democracy for a long, long time. What we’re seeing is the natural end result of decades of subversive work.

      Honestly, and other people on Lemmy acting like this election is the ONLY thing that caused this moment are real ignorant, this has been building for decades. If the Party Loyalists had pushed their party to be GOOD instead of just being “not the other guy” we wouldn’t be in this moment.

    The FCC is like the one agency they could shrink

    I get it, it’s too late to go back to an era where radio waves were free, but the FCC has way too stringent rules. They should worry about things like protecting critical devices from interference and ensuring companies don’t fuck people over (monopolies, robocalls, stuff like that)

      The normal FCC is not the issue.
      Trump and his people threatening journalists is the problem.

        It is though. Like I said, certain tasks are important, but others are overreach (specifically what they do with censorship and control of certain airwaves)
