Who owns ActivityPub? No one.
Me. It’s mine
an oligarch! GET’EM!
You own it too, motherfucker!
Ah the ol’ lemmy switcheroo.
Why does every post ive seen like this leave out amazon?
Not defending it, but probably because Amazon isn’t media or social media. Well, Prime video is media, but it’s not a behemoth like Washington Post or CNN, so it’s not really relevant in the same way. I think the intent is to point out that almost every information outlet the average person learns about the world from is owned by a group of people small enough to get a table at a restaurant without having to call ahead. Fallout and The Boys being bundled in with your online shopping aren’t really influencing people in the same way.
Amazon serves up a vast amount of the Internet, has live video feeds of almost every neighborhood, is a big player in the AI space, is a retail giant, a movie studio, a streaming platform, and a logistics juggernaut.
It isn’t strictly media/influence, but also so much more. Scary stuff.
And if people were to try to topple the oligarchy, Dems would toss them under the bus.
Dems bad!
Yes, oligarchs are bad. How is this controversial to you?
And Dems bad!
This unironically
Remember, Dems bad!
Yes, Dems bad. Reps worse. Unlike the US political establishment, morality is not a binary.
Who needs comparison? Dems bad!
