PieFed has done it once again, this time adding ‘warning’ labels for opposing ideological perspectives, well at least one; Can’t find any warnings for fascism or capitalism 🤔
This can be demonstrated here: https://piefed.social/c/globalnews/p/1697164/sudan-civil-war-spills-over-into-neighboring-chad-peoples-dispatch
or Federal agent
I understood the reference, but if we’re going by that logic, the Fediverse itself is a federal ploy.
You never know…
Then Lemmy, Kbin, Mbin, Mastodon, Friendica, Misskey, Bookwyrm, Pixelfed, Loops, Peertube, all made from disparate developers from around the world, are all one US Federal plot?
Why would they prefer a decentralized, difficult to control social media network over the centralized ones that are already entirely under the control of right-wing billionaires?
Controlled opposition of course. The prevailing ideology can reinforce and sustain itself anywhere, even in a completely decentralized media environment. Dissenting opinions can be safely relegated to smaller venues while liberal orthodoxy prevails in the more visible ones. Thus, reddit is recreated.
However, don’t read too far into this, I was basically just making a joke about how “piefed” has “fed” in it.
No one said they prefer it, but they’re also not going to ignore it, because they want to maintain their dominance of the public discourse. Previously. Previously. Previously.
Though with that said, I doubt PieFed is an op. Some people are so propagandized that they’ll do the work for free and without any direct involvement. Some people are just that “patriotic”.1
