Re:Australia proposes ban on social media for those under 16 on Thursday November 07, 2024 @03:48AM (#42074871)
Do you attribute the Trump victory to people over 60? What about German right wing parties? I assume similar can be found in the U.S., but I did not have time:

The most insane left culture warriors who wanted to relive a second spring on the other hand are indeed approaching or over 60. Fake culture warriors like Pelosi and Biden are over 80.

Fake culture warriors in software organizations like Python are approaching or over 60. You know, the exact same people who read Ayn Rand and supported ESR when it was politically expedient for their careers 20 years ago, because they always go with the herd, no matter how stupid it is.

These culture warriors, through their purges and insane statements, have so thoroughly destroyed any trust in the Democrats that there is a landslide victory for Trump now. It will take years to restore that confidence.

Re:Trudeau government bans TikTok from operating in Canada on Thursday November 07, 2024 @03:33AM (#42074779)
So is the Canadian government, especially under Trudeau, which indirectly controls the media organizations through funding.

All mainstream articles about the trucker protests were horrific lies (except for the honking, which was indeed disruptive and stupid).

I don't care about TikTok, since there is nothing of value there. But will Canada also ban globaltimes.cn now?

(The value of the Global Times is to find out what the party in China thinks, not that it is unbiased.)
