Playing Social Control Media 'Games' Instead of Writing Articles
If you already have your own site/s (domain/s) with your very own RSS feed/s, then Social Control Media has little or nothing to offer except potential for abuse (directed at oneself).
This following 'chess move' seems to be like a mistake or rather a bit of a miscalculation/distraction: (speaking from personal experience, it's a lot of time-wasting with mobs or connected groupthink)
This is what it looks like right now:
So now someone will need to run two sites. One is "In Support of Richard Stallman", which is run by oneself, and another is "Stallman Support" (handle @stallmansupport@mastodon.social
), which a very censorious German will "moderate" (sometimes belatedly; other instances are federated in the censorship sense). That would foster neither dialogue (shouting match, infighting) nor free speech, it'll facilitate more manipulation of one's voice, visibility etc.
A bit disappointing. The time taken to set up and "groom" this account could instead be invested in writing good articles. It's called Social Control Media because somebody else will Control this account. Beware "wrongspeak" and "thoughtcrime".
In his public talk in the United States (a few months ago) Daniel Pocock explained to the audience what Social Control Media had done to his posts. His talk wasn't uploaded to Social Control Media, probably because of "CoC". It was CoC versus Pocock. Truth impermissible. Talking about deaths? Please don't!
To follow "Stallman Support" use this RSS feed (the ISP is the only possible MitM and it's extremely rare for ISPs to censor feeds unless the entire domain is blocked for some odd reason). █
