Do we need any more reasons to stop using america tech? it all has a kill switch if you dont do what they want you to do
I wish we did like China did years ago and just had all north american's propaganda machine banned for good, but now it's too late, Trump and his enablers will fuck over my country with another cursed fascist administration. Hell, even if Lula wins on his fourth term would be even lamer duck, since both houses of congress are in the hands of the extreme-frothing-in-the-mouth-far-right
I'm an American and I support democracy. However, my own government only exploits liberal democracies if ever given the chance. Any country worth exploiting must be on a constant defensive war footing just to stay sovereign.
They're making it so obvious you're either pro-Lula or pro-billionaire
I really hope if Lula wins they manage to ban Meta, Twitter, and any other platform that has engaged in naked election interference.
They will be happy with any conclusion that falls short of noticing Flavio is pro-organized-crime.
Meta is the right arm of the Trump administration.
Greater than 1080? Just say the number
Edit: I used a greater than symbol and it was used as formatting
They found at least 1,080, presuming there's more.
I don't see this as confusing, especially if you actually read the article.

EDIT: It's \> in Markdown if used at the beginning of a line, otherwise it gets treated as a quote tag. I couldn't remember for sure what it was so I figured I'd post it here after I tested it.
Thanks!!

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
