    When all of the companies do it and they do as they are told by daddy Sam… What is the difference.

    The only difference I see is that they don’t send you to gulag in US unless you really make some dear leader life uncomfortable.

    Americans still do a lot of self censorship. Anything Israel related gets modded into shot on normie socials.

    Luigi is prolly best example… They are suppressing that across all media, fake news and social… How is this different from shepoohs bullshit?

      I’m not defending the bad things our government does. But do we see mass arrests of people wearing Luigi shirts? Will you be denied a passport as a result of posting some critical message on social media? I had friends, very average unimportant people, who were detained for days at a Chinese airport for having a social media history showing support for Taiwan. It’s not the same thing.

        We have several prisoners at Guantanamo with absolutely no tangible connection to terrorist organizations. They have been there for 20 years in some cases and have no release or court date scheduled.

        Us has largest prison population in the world?

        Capitalist regimes targets people differently but the function of the oppression is the same.
