@LA71 That’s a bit of a joke on the French, they’re good at being freaky and weird

@LA71 @BrikoX If #Pornhub got banned from #France, the citizens would just leave

@fckreddit @yogthos The #UK sounds like an awful place to use modern technology

If I ran a big tech company I’d pull out of the country entirely tbh

@JoYo @ModdedPhones Pretty much all evidence points to the contrary

@BrikoX

> A controversial fundraising campaign to help the family of the policeman who killed teenager Nahel M. in France has topped €1 million.

If it’s so controversial, how did it top €1 million?

“Controversial” means “we disapprove” in #MSM-speak.

@flip @BrikoX More people would have likely died if he wasn’t stopped. It’s too bad that he got killed tho.

@Pacifist @TheAnonymouseJoker #Lemmy in general, and lemmy.ml in particular, is known for white-knighting for dictators tho, so this isn’t all too unexpected tbh

Although I guess in most cases they wait for the dictator to die first so that people forget how bad he was

@jherazob The #Meta situation isn’t comparable to the #XMPP situation though

@jherazob

what the heck makes you think that all the #Fediverse users are just gonna leave for #Meta because federation with it is “annoying”? lol

@MyMulligan @jherazob I disagree.

I think the key thing is to just make sure that you don’t use non #FOSS clients. #GoogleTalk started as a client for #XMPP, people migrated to it, and then #Google dropped support for #XMPP. If so many people didn’t use #GoogleTalk, the #XMPP network would have remained unimpeded.

@kamenoko As a #Christian, Jesus is alive (just in Heaven, not on Earth) and yes, He would flip tables over both, most likely.

@const_void Doesn’t #CBN peddle the prosperity gospel and other heresies?

It is sad that he died but I’m not going to pretend that a network broadcast a fake gospel is a net positive for #Christianity.

@yogthos @Manmoth Is #Cuba a better place to live than the #USA?

@American_Communist22 @yogthos he can’t hold a candle to Hitler IMHO
