This is such a comically delusional and out of touch comment that can only be found in the bowels of Lemmy

Do you think 9/11 was a false flag done by the Jews? Normally posts like this should be removed because they’re clearly bigoted.

That’s stupid. This is something that’s undoubtedly positive that’s being painted as a negative by people who are naive. The one and only reason why we even know this was even a thing is because the US is a democracy with some degree of transparency. Even if its decades later, we can still publicly view, discuss, and criticize things that the government has done in the past because those documents were declassified and released to the public.

Most countries are not like this. There are a lot of instances like this that will never see the light of day until that regime collapses, and even then its successor might keep the secret going. For example, Turkey is STILL locking up the Ottoman archives relating to the Armenian genocide more than century later. There are so many evil plots and schemes made both in the past and present that we will probably never know about because they will never be released publicly due to the ruling regimes wanting to maintain their image. I wish there was more instances like this from the US and every country so we can see the good, the bad, and the ugly and get a real understanding of history.

Horseshoe theory in action. I had check to see if I was on a neo nazi website, but nope, we’re on the very left Lemmy where saying Jews did 9/11 is now considered normal

Does anybody else remember the good old days before the pandemic when anti-vaxers where a left wing phenomenon? It was mostly popular among the all natural hippies who were convinced that crystals and meditation could cure diseases and that all modern medicine was a scam by the all powerful and all elusive “big pharma”… It’s sad that anti-vaxers who went from clowns that everybody made fun to being a serious problem because a big chunk of society decided to go brain dead and old diseases are making a comeback.

People often think that Tor is entirely anonymous but this is not true, you can be deanonymized. There has been cases before where law enforcement used patterns and traces left behind by Tor users to track down their real IP address, and thus their real identities. This has been mostly done to track down criminals, but the point is that it’s not only possible, but it has been done before.

It’s generally best practice to only use Tor sparingly in situations where you really need anonymity, and when you do use it, you should make sure to never use any information that could lead back to you in any way. Using Tor as a daily driver to browse the clearnet is malpractice. Not only do you risk being deanonymized due to your browsing habits, but you will also stick out like a sore thumb in traffic because while everybody else is driving a car to visit these sites, you would be driving a heavily armored tank.

If you plan to use it more leisurely anyway then at least stick to onion sites and communities that are designed for Tor’s anonymity. Though, I don’t recommend using Tor regularly unless you’re either a criminal doing some shady business, a whistleblower or a journalist dealing with sensitive information, an individual who wants to bypass heavy government censorship, or someone who’s being targeted by a state (and believe me, if 3 letter agencies want to track you down, then they will). I don’t think you’re any of these.

If you’re just someone who wants a strong, private browser for normal usage then download something Ironfox and pair it with a good no logs VPN service like Mullvad. That’ll be more than enough for the vast majority of people.

You should never use TOR as a daily driver.

news is extremely stupid as a result of perpetual propaganda/lie machine.

But you’re just dismissing evidence, which then makes claims impossible to verify. If you don’t trust multiple reputable news organizations reporting the same events, then what exactly do you trust to get updates on world events?

They 100% still have the power to control the Straights with supreme drone control and will use the power to selectively allow friendly shipping as they were doing yesterday. and your comment is pure stupidity if not purposeful lie.

Reiterating your claim and then claiming me stupid doesn’t prove me wrong or you right, it just shows that you lack substance. Both the old and new Khamenei stated the same strategy, which is to completely close down the strait to apply pressure on other country to apply pressure on the US and Israel to stop their attacks.

I think those types are beyond hope. They’re so zealous and ignorant that I honestly think that they basically worship Trump. I’m talking more about the quieter types. Back during the 2000s, Bush actually had a pretty big base of supporters, and they were especially vocal after 9/11, but after the 2008 recession and the war on terror, a lot of his supporters went silent. Sure, there we’re still a few that supported him afterwards, but a lot of his supporters chose to pretend that they never supported Bush in the first place. I feel like something similar is happening here.

Honestly Fox doesn’t hold as much weight as it used to. Ever since Tucker Carlson left, they’ve been kind of irrelevant. This is doubly true when you consider that a lot of their viewers moved to Newsmax and OANN after they have multiple public feuds with Trump. They’re still a propaganda outlet for his admin, but not to the same extent as it used to. I think Facebook is way more influential nowadays. The sheer amount of propaganda, bots, and misinformation on there is so ridiculous it should be illegal.
