  • I like PDS and watched for over a decade. but ive had to stop treating it like a news source. I feel his coverage is not informative unless you live under a rock and need a quick rundown of what’s happening. He oversimplifies to the point of being misleading definitively leaves out contrary info and makes way stronger claims than the evidence really supports. He knows his audience (me included) and spins the story for them and in reality its probably not him but his writing team.

    His interviews with officials are still good.


  • You’re right. I have no idea how I read your initial comment and jump to that conclusion. I must have been tired when i replied.

    For the actual response. I think this law does partial combat the misinformation,advertising and brainwashing concerns. I dont think we can/need to prevent misinformation, advertising or brainwashing for people over 16 without serious infringement on civil liberties.

    For algorithm’s its far less feasible to go after. These companies protect the algorithm because its the core IP of their business. Its not something we can simply get rid of without destroying the most popular feature of the platform.




  • It seems to be popular with people i talk to in real life. It also seems go be very popular with leftwing people outside niche internet spaces like this. Most people are viewing this as a good way to prevent misinformation brainwashing and not paying attention to the removal of internet freedom. From talking to these people its because they dont think there is internet freedom as internet is only 5 sites which all spy on you already.

    No its not an attack on empathy. Empathy isnt projecting your own thoughts onto people and believing wholeheartedly that you are correct. Its trying to put yourself in their shoes and understand how they are feeling. “Trying to understand” being the difference here. .

    just remember, when it feels like someone is twisting you inside out as you slowly lose consciousness, you chose this because you wanted that bread more than you wanted to live.

    I once left pasta out on the bench all day and night then the next day I ate it and moved the rest to the fridge. I then spend a 16 hours in the feral position in so much pain I thought i was gonna die. Then the next day I was really hungry and the pasta tasted pretty good so I ate it again and spent another day curled up in immense pain. My stupidity knows no bounds.
