It's a ban. They have stated in no uncertain terms that they will not sell or separate any interests. It's not for our "security" or any of that absolute BS either. It's for their own profits and because they want people's data.

The fact that you'd want our media to even remotely resemble the highly sensored versions in China is insane to me. Y'all are just happy to go along with this because you don't like tiktok. That's it. That's all it took for a lot of you. I'd say I expected better but it's becoming more obvious every day that lemmy is where the old and out of touch people migrated to. Despite it seeming like it would be the opposite.

You genuinely don't care if the government oversteps as long as it fits your bias. The fact that they couldn't get it to go through as a single issue twice so they had to shove it with other issues just to get their way should be enough to piss most people off but here we are. It's a shame. I'm disappointed in how easily manipulated so many of you are. Truly.

Except for the part where they couldn't get support for it twice so they shoved it in here to get their way? But that's ok because you don't like the silly dancing app that you know basically nothing about right? Other than "China bad", of course.

What you pay in taxes isn't YOUR money so get over it.

Not being aware something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Sounds gross to me but I wouldn't even be mildly surprised if it existed

I don't know how familiar you are with salad dressing but you don't usually pour the entire batch of dressing on one salad lol

I hated it but my teacher just had us read a book quietly and then tested us on it. Almost no interaction at all other than occasionally making us take turns reading it out loud which also just kinda sucks

Also god forbid you might need to refill early if you're going out of town or something. I knew they'd get weird about that so I just refilled it late when I got back and they made me piss in a cup for two months in a row. For refilling late because that could indicate I was selling it apparently???? I still get so upset remembering it. I can't believe how they're allowed to treat us sometimes.

Ritalin is the only medication I've taken for the last 15 years and I stg someone still fucking hassles me at least once every few months. Either it's insurance, the doctor, or the pharmacy. Someone ALWAYS makes it a pain in the ass. It's beyond absurd how many hoops I still jump through after over a decade of the same dose of the same medication.
