Late Stage Capitalism

A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc.

MODERATORS
Have you ever been on tiktok? You will lose braincells quicker than drinking gasoline.
It should genuinely be considered self harm to have a tiktok account.
Yes, but don't let perfect be the enemy of good.
I would strongly disagree.
Like if you banned being a Nazi, but not being part of the KKK, that's still better than "no moderation"
Because China bad. Duh.
Sorry, I assumed the /s was implied.

If you're not aware by now that social networks are vectors for influencing people's political opinions, you're living in the wrong decade, amigo.
You know what? You're right. I doubt that a control freak government would try to control anyone.
Why do you have to be so angry and offended and why do you have to pretend you were given no evidence when i provided two examples? I didn't say your mom was a nosy manipulative control freak, I said the Chinese government was!
Oh,... wait...
I agree with you, but that's a Meta scandal. If anything it proves that the right move would be to regulate the platforms. Not just ban foreign ones.
Oh yes, I agree! I provided an example of a TikTok campaign in a later comment. It's not the source that's the problem, it's that everyone is trying to manipulate (but the ones controlling the platform have way more feedback and control, of course).
“Chinese app”? I’m sensing some defensiveness here.
Using any for profit data harvesting app has great financial incentive to negatively impact anyone, evidence based government back-doors or not.
I’m sure there’s some lovely Chinese-made fediverse wrappers or locally hosted communities with good moderation. Idk, I don’t speak Chinese.
Dang, nobody spent 20 minutes of their life citing sources about a tangentially related topic you randomly sprung on them in a Lemmy comments section? Instead they had negative reactions? They must be sinophobic - stay strong brother your next comment will surely win the lurkers over ✊
I’m just very charmed by your CharmOffesive comrade! I cannot help myself - I’m compelled to reply~😍
It allows any pos to spread their garbage misinformed opinions as facts. its full of adult weirdos making softcore porn knowing the platform is full of minors and many intentionally targeting their content towards them. Its full of grifters peddling pseudoscientific supplements, cosmetics, medical advice etc. Its full of rwnj and pseudo progressives from all over the world spreading populist propaganda. It also makes it easy for any anti social pos to get famous.
That's Twitter too.
which is banned where i live
