I don’t see that. Canada claim to the arctic rests on claiming our land physically extends out. America is up there claiming it with their navy and so is Russia. Anyways meme’n online isn’t contributing to their arctic claim. It doesn’t make sense. Politically Russia does not care about Canada right now. Aside from the odd afro turf about Ukraine, there isn’t much. China is targeting Canada. Big time. That’s where our bots are coming from. China and America

I’m interested in your point about non profits what’s the context there::: spoiler spoiler

This is insane. What happened to journalism.

See this is where protests should be happening. Should be demanding these things they try to hide get dragged into the open. Fucking if we see this we fight until it is dragged into the sunlight.

My question is, what does that say about us? What is the message the author knew would work on us?

This is by definition a special interest story. It might as well be a story about an elderly women feeding ducks by the pond.

So out of curiosity because I shit on MAGA for this all the time. This is a special interest story trying to make us feel a certain way isn’t it? It’s not about statistics or facts. It’s about a feeling. It’s manipulative.

What is that message the author wants us to feel

Not really. They’re interested in destabilizing America to further expand it’s interests.

Canada is more likely getting fucked by American and Chinese interests

They never have, I have doubts its truly 20%. They have had to push hard for this and manipulate a lot.

Russia doesn’t care

Yea that’s my under standing as well. It’s all show. Part of a bigger picture right now.

In order for Alberta to separate they would need to convince all the provinces to agree and only after the province agree on what they get to walk away with. This isn’t happening.

They didn’t do a referendum. They found a loop hole. Very likely it was American influence like heritage foundation fixers that worked with them on this. Referendum historically fail. This is the Facebook mom groups type of bullshit

I think they’re trying to uno reverse here. This is a researcher that showed the vaccine and autism link was not credible.

MAHA and Kennedy are going after him.

Posting because it pisses me off but I think news is about staying informed. More than ever we need to be aware this is what those fucking MAGA are using.

Gen-Z pre-purchase AAA games and hang out on r/Marvel salivating at the daily question some Intern cooked up for that day just so executives can mark “engagement UP” on a monthly teams call. Get fucking real. It’s the most corporate owned generation to exist.

Just look at the state of the internet now. Look at how it is built. There can be no room for creation and new. It’s all mods trying to copy and paste last weeks questions to keep numbers up. Step outside that and BAM you’re banned. Must keep the trains running.

All of this is to capture people and sell their attention to marketing teams to sell that weeks pokemon or action movie. It is so inherent in the way the internet is now that Moderators don’t even know that’s what they’re doing, let alone the users. Forums are not suppose to be like this. The internet was never suppose to be like this. You’re suppose to see a butthole every now and then. That’s how you know you are in an area they dont’ control.

I just had comments removed for saying there is a lot of Chinese propaganda and spamoflage on lemmy.

Yes

I think they are. I think tech forums are essentially places to convince people to hate tech. Hate progress. Meanwhile other countries embrace these new technologies and develop, build and iterate.
