Google has put a lot of effort into detecting and blocking stuff like this. They call it “click fraud”, if you want to look it up.

It’ll just mean they start ignoring clicks from you.

…they’ll transport you to a black site in El Salvador, tho.

Remember when all the cookers were going on about “Save the children”?

That’s very cool.

It’ll be interesting to see how it goes in a year’s time, maybe they’ll have raised their expectations and tightened the deadlines by then.

Property damage can sometimes be considered terrorism, depending on the intent, scale, and impact of the act. Many legal definitions of terrorism include serious destruction of property if it is intended to:

• Intimidate or coerce a population (e.g., setting fire to critical infrastructure to spread fear).
• Influence a government or international organization (e.g., bombing government buildings to force political change).
• Cause widespread disruption (e.g., cyberattacks on essential services).

Tesla dealerships are not critical infrastructure, government buildings or essential services.

It’s really a stretch to call this terrorism.

Great, thanks for sticking with me here your perseverance has made PieFed better!

I’ve just made it so you can log in with an email address and the user name field disregards case. So you can use a mixture of upper and lower case and it’ll cope.

Maybe that’ll help!

I lived in PH for years during Duterte and have direct experience too. I understand why he is so popular and why his supporters are completely wrong.

No, it didn’t work and the perpetrators admitted so themselves.

Wasn’t there some pop culture subreddit that closed down recently? What was the story/process there?

As well as the algorithm, there are also structural things.

For example tweets limited to 160 characters favor simplistic solutions, which the far right provide. An endless stream of random unrelated nuggets of ideas create a fugue of confusion, perfect for injecting disinformation. Ruined attention spans can only grasp simplistic solutions. Video-based media means surface appearance matters more than substance. And so on.

Preach!
