It’s a two-pronged strategy.

The lesser-evil candidates piggyback on the greater-evil ones by saying “Hey, at least we’re not as bad as that guy!”

It’s super effective against useful idiots.

It undermines the integrity of the digital advertising ecosystem while providing additional income for website operators.

Useful idiots keep shouting “she’s too young” while voting for dinosaurs.

Really puts into perspective how ‘smart’ the average voter is.

Citizens United was such a misstep, because most people can’t think for themselves and their votes can be bought by convincing them that voting for X will make them look good in front of their peers.

Toast.

Because he’s a useful idiot who just parrots what other people tell him.

Don’t think I can support anyone running against AOC. She’s the best candidate by a country mile.

It’s not even that she’s so spectacular, it’s just the other options are horrendously shit.

Gearing up for the tsunamis of useful idiots though telling me why we need a moderate candidate just like hillary and kamala.

Yeah. Democrats chose to run some of the worst candidates in history.

It’s sad that now a female candidate guarantees a trump victory. Nominating conservative female candidates did more harm than good.

Switch to AdNauseam.

It clicks ads in addition to blocking them.

It’s not a trap.

Which is faster?

Yeah. You want to misconstrue it as “misinformation” so that you’re automatically correct with no discussion involved and you can censor anyone who disagrees with you.

I’m going to ignore you now.

It would feel odd, but you have to remember we live in a world where Epstein was allowed to get away with what he did until the little people found out.

I tried giving you an opportunity, but I’m going to block you now.

You people will just respond incessantly until you get what you want, so I’m going to let you have the last word.

Goodbye.

Your problem is that you want to censor ideas you don’t like.

You want to control what other people think by dictating what they get to see and what they’re allowed to share with others.

You are going to grasp at whatever straw you can to get rid of people saying things you don’t like.

That’s fine.

Nobody is forcing you to do it.

That’s just the nature of the internet.

I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to block you now.

I’ve seen too much incompetence on your part, and I need to stop validating it with responses.

Goodbye.

Does this mean users won’t be able to see videos hosted on other platforms from your instance?

Gonna have to ignore you, bud.

Arguing with incompetent people such as yourself is a waste of effort.

Goodbye.

I don’t think that’s true.

It’s my understanding that by federating, you are duplicating the data from the servers you federate with on your own.

The people who set up the instances usually also are responsible for paying to keep them active.

but it is going to be very difficult to convince people to pay for what YouTube gives away for free.

I mean, they’re already there. Have you tried using Peertube?
