      Well yeah, but it’s the US government which hasn’t ever done anything problematic before. I’m sure it’s for everyone’s best interest. /S

      Which if that were true, still wouldn’t matter.

        Im assuming your point is that if the us government does 1 bad thing, every move it makes is bad? If not, what is your point?

          Uhh. The user is saying that the US government has a long history of both corruption and abuse of power. Source: I am American.

      Imagine using being unfathomably addicted to trusting an app parented and developed in a country where you can’t criticize your leaders.

        Imagine trusting an app owned by billionaires that just paid off the government to remove their competition.

        You’re an idiot if you trust any social media platform at this point.

        You do know that it’s illegal to be a socialist and hold any kind of government job in the United States? Brother we are in that country right now. But let’s keep hearing you bitch about China.

            Yes, but also note that it hasn’t been recinded, and our current Supreme Court has a soft spot for digging up forgotten legislation.

              Fair point that it hasn’t been rescinded, but I’m struggling to find any convictions based on this law or citations of this law ever being used in court, so it really does not seem relevant nowadays. If anyone can dig up any and reference them here, I’ll gladly edit this comment to reflect that information.

              There are laws from 1700s that haven’t been rescinded but also bear no relevance to the modern day. California just changed old legal language stating that marriage was defined as being between a man and woman, but gay marriage has been legal for a long time now.

            Brother, that is still the laws on the books. Age does not matter. Do you really not understand that? Do you think laws expire? Did you choose to not understand? What’s your deal? You live inside your own nightmare.

            Technical possibilities to circumvent a law are not part of my argument here.
