As per usual, the "free speech on someone else's dime" folks think the people running the forums they feel entitled to shouldn't have actual moderation tools. Shocking.

Once upon a time, people overseeing web forums used to have the ability to move posts, split topics, and even shunt comment chains into other, exising posts. But all Reddit allows is to delete, and so this space that apes some of the worst bits about Reddit thinks they shouldn't do any better than the lowest of fucking low bars.

They gotta be serving up what she's cooking. I hope all of her seditious bullshit is plastered on every newspaper, televison show, YouTube video, and Facebook feed in the country right up until election day

"We will need to ensure that Canada can succeed in a drastically different world," Carney said. "The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military co-operation is over."

I have been waiting 30 years to hear this. I want to believe this.

We shouldn't have let ourselves become dependent on them in the first place, but some business owners in the 80s got hella rich, so... I guess it was worth it /s

Reddit would refuse to accept (error out) or act like it accepted and then just outright delete my comments

Oh, this is pretty standard behaviour on the site in general these days. It's just a broken mess made by an incompetent company. Their front-end regularly silently disconnects from their backend all of the damn time.

For the most part it's not censorship, it's just a badly broken website that doesn't give a shit about its users' experience, because it doesn't see anything else as real competition.

Established users, too. I'm still active on Reddit, just much less so than I used to be. And a lot of the biggest promoters of the Fediverse are still active there, doing what they can to promote Lemmy- and Mastodon-based sites.

Bingo.

You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube, but you can bust skulls over the rank hypocracy of the tech CEOs.

Because they're voicing their opinions on social media, not at the dinner table.

PMs are always technically appointed, but are chosen based on a vote by Members of Parliament. But also we just kicked off a general election yesterday, so *shrug*.

What makes you think he thinks Trump is going to call him? He was just asked a question by the press.
