“To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Post got removed in .world for not being a "news source" even though Klippenstein is definitely a very established independent journalist, so trying again here I guess.

Man, I signed up at world because it sounded like the most official one, but there's so much fuckery constantly on this instance... I even donated at one point then stopped when they were trying to shut down instances talking about piracy. Wtf?

You can easily sign up at another instance and export / import your subscriptions and settings. The only thing you can't transfer is your old posts, afaik.

I'm glad their captcha was broken when I tried to sign up.

lemmy.ml is technically the most official instance, because it's run by the developers themselves.

My instance is great, the only issue I've ever had is that they don't defederate from some of the more shitty instances. Based on what you're talking about, you may appreciate that, though.

I guess I see the logic in simply blocking that on an app/browser level.
