This was within seconds.
Which document is this? I wanna look it up. EDIT: I found them! It looks like they really are just pulling documents that implicate Trump as they get discovered, and redacting them.
These are the worst Fascists ever. Completely incompetent at spinning political narratives.
I would argue that they are the best kind of fascist; they wont last long.
That PI batch is particularly damning. I’m surprised I haven’t even heard of these bits among even YouTube circles. Maybe Upper Echelon is working on something.
Technically, the Chinese dictatorship claims to be the communist flavor of autocracy.
What? Huh? Whuh? I think you got your posts mixed up, guy.
Nah, the dude just hates china and can’t stop thinking about it. He’s pretty well known on dbzer0 for it.
You said
These are the worst Fascists ever.
But very technically speaking fascism is a right wing autocracy while (supposed) communism such as the ones who made and operate TikTok claim to be “left-wing” autocracy.
Its purely semantics and a difference without distinction, but I wanted to make sure we weren’t absolving the CCP of this crime because a lot of comments on this post are attempting to do exactly that and shift blame to the new owners who don’t actually have the algorithm yet.
Buddy…
Go touch grass. You’re too online for your own good.
Ah, my bad, I thought your expressed confusion was genuine.
They redacted the fucking bullet point? lmao
That’s what happens when you Ctrl+A+redact
That 119 page document that was fully redacted, the redacted the frikkin margins.
What kind of sick bitch redacts the margins?!
Went from Chinese censorship to American censorship LOL
Still Chinese, actually, the sale is being finalized but the servers are still in Beijing currently.
China have always supported the Trump regime.
tiktok is owned by maga, isn’t it?
Yes. The Trump administration is refusing to obey a law to enforce a tiktok ban in exchange for political loyalty
Technically yes but actually no.
The servers are still in Beijing at this moment, these actions were taken by the Chinese.
TikTok and China have always supported Trump.
Yes, trying to forcibly give ownership of it to one of his lackies.
I thought it was recently completed?
Not yet
… But they’ve been acting like it since the first ban wave
Trump already said that the new deal was going to make TikTok 100% MAGA.
It always has been.
The servers are still in Beijing, the changeover hasn’t happened yet.
Yeah and EA is blocking saying Epstein, but you can say trump and Biden but not Epstein. A lot of companies are protecting the pedos.
EA? do you mean EU, theres plenty of EU politicians, plus an israeli PM former on there too that are on the files. and the prince of NONCE.
If I ran a game company I’d block this shit as well. Morons need to turn literally every platform into some political squabble, and I wouldn’t tolerate it.
You shouldnt have to turn every talk into a political one. If anyone would actually do anything about all the injustice, there would be less injustice to speak of. You remember when you were little and you discussed the hells of nuclear warfare with your other 10 year old friends on minecraft? No? Maybe thats because there wasnt an active nuclear war going on, perhaps? One that people like you enable by turning a blind eye?
It’s been a hundred years and we’re still making WWII movies. You think living through it is going to be any less worthy of attention?
Listen dummy, I know this is very hard for you to understand because you’re passionate about some political things, but you’re proving my point, people play games to get away from this shit.
Sounds like you’re playing the wrong games then. Ever heard of Breath of the Wild? Stardew Valley is supposed to be pretty chill. Or you can always turn off your mic. Or mute specific players. Or play multiplayer games that don’t have voice chat. The possibilities are practically endless. But nah, mass censorship is the better option!
i dont know what games you’re playing but you seemed to be getting way to upset over it for no reason you might need to seek help if your games is making this angry for you to PROJECT your problems like that. by the way most games are going to be political anyways.
Somewhat related note / PSA to all:
When typing on Android 16 using Gboard (with permissions and custom dictionary turned off), the words “pedophile,” “pedophilia,” and “pedophilic” do not show up in the suggested set of words or autocorrections. It doesn’t say these are spelled wrong after you complete the word though. It simply offers no suggestions after “pedoph-” is typed and shows literally nothing when you put the cursor on the completed word, unlike any other word.
Out of curiosity, I tried a bunch of swear words and slurs. Gboard will gladly show the N word if typed correctly for example, but not pedophile. (“Cocksucker” is the only other word I can find that has this seeming lack of dictionary presence.)
The fuck?
couldn’t replicate your issue. sorry
It shows up in mine if it started with “Paedo”, which is the correct dictionary words afaik
It’s likely only showing autocomplete for commonly used works, or maybe words that are statistically likely to be next, otherwise the list would be enourmous. There is a setting to not show offensive words, disabling that make is show pedophile as an option.
Good call on the offensive words being disabled as suggestions. I definitely thought I had offensive word suggestions enabled, considering “cunt” and “dickwad” and all sorts of other stuff showed up (stuff I don’t recall typing before anyway) when I wasn’t enabling it.
Just to confirm, I have offensive words enabled now and yes, pedophile and its relatives do show up. So it’s just … The hierarchy of offensiveness seems weird, eh.
The hierarchy of offensiveness seems weird
I was initially of the same opinion, but actually, which of those would you be most offended to be called? I wonder if that’s the scale they’re using?
I absolutely get where you’re coming from, in the sense that being called a pedophile is way more damningly offensive than simply being a cunty cocksucker, for example.
It does seem like a derived scale though if that’s the intent, like they’re ranking the actionability or capacity of the word to offend rather than the “how bad is this to say on network TV” level of offensiveness I’d expect.
Been using heliboard here for about 6 months now and is the same way
TikToks level of censorship SUCKS its the reason we have those dumb “algorithm-friendly” alternatives for serious topics. Can’t say people were KILLED so you gotta say they’re UNALIVE.
Still not worth anything to install that spyware on my phone, got it.
That’s the problem with the problem with social media.
It isn’t the apps.
It’s they people are so fucking stupid and addicted they’re going to keep feeding it.
The amount of metrics that TikTok collects though, no thanks.
Great point.
I take that back. It’s also the apps.
But Facebook messenger is cool amirite
Definitely not
I was being sarcastic. So many people I know say TikTok bad mmkay but insist on using FB messenger for personal comms.
The sarcasm was clear to me at least. 😔
I refuse TikTok, and I would refuse Messenger too if I didn’t have a whole bunch of people I talk to that refuse to leave Facebook.
I am however thinking about uninstalling Messenger so that communication with me will be hampered by those who don’t switch to something more reasonable. No instant connection e.g. Replies will be delayed, and so on.
Yeah, id lose a ton of communication if I stopped messenger and my friends would just call me the crazy conspiracy guy. “We dont care if they steal our data and spy, we are being spied on anyways, why do you care?” They say.
I hate this argument. It’s like when I tell my kids not to spill on their clothes and my wife is like “their clothes are already dirty, go easy”. I’m like that’s not the point. The point is to teach them to not spill. Not to try and avoid sullying an already sullied shirt. ffs, this concept flies above some people’s heads sometimes.
Of course, they just sold to Ellison and friends. It’s now just another mouthpiece for the Conservative Propaganda Machine.
is the netflix WB/ paramount purchase still going on, ellison is trying to get that because of CCN as well.
Netflix is buying Warner. When Ellison heard about it, he tried to step in and steal the sale, but he was rejected.
That seems to indicate that Ellison is going to go after any media property he can get his hands on. Normally, regulatory agencies would prevent him from owning too much, but none of that will apply these days. He’s already part of the TikTok deal.
IF Democrats regain power, it will be necessary to look at media ownership, and make adjustments if necessary. Trump forced the sale of TikTok to a conservative ownership, the Dems should feel comfortable doing the same thing in reverse, forcing divestiture where necessary.
Let’em cry about it like the little treasonous little PedoCon bitches they are.
If you upload an all-black image does it get flagged?
Try posting a fully redacted page, let’s see if that gets removed too
Everyone needs to be boycotting TikTok hard. Bring more people to Lemmy, Bluesky, Mastodon, PeerTube and other more ethical alternatives.
So that’s why they insisted on selling it to Americans?
Freedom of expression was a great moto to grab power. Now: censorship of material already censored. I think most people slowly realize what’s going on thanks to moves like this. Do they?
Hard to say. Even when elections happen it will be hard to say if those elections represented the views of the people.
EDIT: To clarify, I think it’s important that all of us vote with no exception and that democracy is the only answer, but even if people are learning the next US election might be so unfair that it doesn’t show in the results.
