Since when is saying countries should have their own social media platforms "racist"? You think it was "racist" for europe to develop airbus? You think a nation should rely on a foreign power for their social media needs? You think a nation should let a foreign power control their electricity?

Saying nations should empower themselves isn't "racism". It's the opposite of racism.

Bro, come back to me when you're 100% "local". Every last element of your computing environment and lifestyle is manufactured, developed, coded, and maintained locally.

Then I'll never have to hear from you again.
