  • Well, a known fascist tactic is making examples out of randomly chosen people who allegedly said the wrong thing in the wrong place. The amount of noise doesn’t matter in that case. They’ll just pick people at random they can persecute publicly in an attempt to scare everyone into clamming up and obeying.

    At that point, there is no point in censoring yourself, because they will target you randomly regardless. At that point, there will be no point in saying or not saying anything online, because the only recourse will be [removed by lemmy.world admins] until the last one is [removed]


  • The US government and its oligarch pals has so much data on each of us already that if you haven’t been completely sanitary with your internet usage from the start, you’re already in a database, and there’s no point in worrying about it now.

    I agree with the sentiment of this post, but let’s face it: if we get to the point where they’re sending secret police to everyone who ever said “fuck Trump” online, we’re beyond fucked, and electronic defenses will be moot at that point. Using euphemisms for Trump and Musk won’t save you from their surveillance.
