Re: The Dictator observations thread.
Horribly, you're undoubtedly right, but how can there not be even one human being as some kind of quality control? I mean, evil corporations like this know full well the importance of avoiding shitstorms.

I kinda can't stop myself from thinking that saving/making money takes precedence over everything, even preventative measures.

Re: The Dictator observations thread.
I fully believe that profit > indoctrination in normal business practice—I'm not lefty conspiracist—but when these companies spending millions on advertising annually, the notion of not having quality control for their social media feeds just seems too unlikely to me.Kory wrote: ↑10 Nov 2022, 6:22pmI kinda can't stop myself from thinking that saving/making money takes precedence over everything, even preventative measures.

Brilliant observation I came across: 80% of conservative outrage is just someone finding out how stuff works for the first time.

Seems like a workable blend of people power and common sense policing.
