Are those child soldiers?
Probably. The CPP (communist party of the Philippines) isn’t as wholesome as Lemmy thinks
Not a single finger on the triggers, not bad
The act of having to request permission from your collective to court someone sounds so incredibly dystopian.
truly badass
WHY ON X THOUGH!?
My armchair psychology theory is that it is the same brain mechanism why people smoke cigarettes.
We know smoking cigarettes is bad. Cigarette smokers know smoking cigarettes is bad, but they can’t stop.
Obviously addiction plays a part, but they won’t switch to nicotine gum, nor zyns/snus nor even vapes
Ethiopia has one of the lowest smoking rates in the world. How? It’s banned in public places, it cannot be flavoured, warning labels must be included, and there are high taxes.
How do we do the same for Twitter? We ban the app from being downloaded from the apple/play store (downloading an apk is fine). We prohibit Twitter from showing ads to users in the country. We require a warning on each page load that Twitter promotes Nazi content, and we tax Twitter just to do business in the country.
If Twitter doesn’t agree to those terms, they can stop doing business in this country. They still have the option of getting revenue from blue checkmarks, so it’s not like it’s impossible for them to operate. They just have to follow certain restrictions on how they conduct business, just like Cigarette companies have to.
Could just be really old
