  • <laughs in massive data breaches> Better buckle up Buttercup, because “being in a database” is a reality. Thanks to data breaches such as Equifax, pretty much every US citizen and all their important details are available in numerous databases.

    We willingly purchase devices that listen and watch our every move… to be added to private, corporate databases that get sold around like cheap prostitutes. At least with government databases, voting gives at least a teeny, tiny modicum of control.

    And even better, while I cant name specific breaches in relation to global populations, it’s a safe bet most everyone else is compromised as well.

    On the bright side, at least it makes random identity theft occurring to any one particular individual akin to winning the PowerBall.



  • The “free speech” instances are just cesspools of a different shade. Sticking to any one singular platform, you’ll eventually notice them start to slide towards a groupthink/echochamber of sorts, regardless of the focus of the instance.

    Easiest way is to just browse multiple instances of different types. At least the unhinged insanity of each side cancels each other out for the most part.
