Your threat model seems… Interesting lol. Is there a high chance of people trying to aggressively plant a tracker on you when out in the open?

Our car centric world. We have somehow intersected everything and everywhere with death zone strips where people can’t go. And that’s entirely normal and accepted.

I’ll have you know I have a whole 27343 cents in my bank account.

I don’t disagree but there is a distinct difference between social democracy and a socialist democracy, or democratic socialism.

The former is a capitalist system with some welfare systems in place, the latter is socialism without the one party state.

I’d guess they don’t care enough. If bsky enshittifies they will just find something else, same as now, but until then they can just ride it out with little to no hassle.

I don’t know why you are so defensive about this and at this point i don’t really care, def not enough to make an account with china lol. I also specifically said they keep the westerners away from the Chinese feeds, not the reverse, so that proves nothing even if i did make one.

It is far fetched to you that China keeps up its internet segregation?

Each of their popular apps and services has a Chinese and a western version, specifically to ensure the government can maintain control over the domestic narrative.

I dont think even the most zealous tankies would contest that China routinely practices censorship to control the flow of information.

Source is some other lemmy post about the subject, it had some translated pictures as well. I don’t have a link at hand though so feel free to look around for it yourself or just disregard.

Old news, predictably China is already adjusting the algorithms to keep the foreign users away from the feeds of the locals. They don’t want westerners causing ripples in the water.

Lol fuck that. Nobody in a bad spot wants to hear that some underage minority prostitutes in some bigoted religious third world country have it worse. There is always someone who has it worse, in fact this is one of the most common deflections when the marginalized ask for (literal) change.
