    As Aqua (and others) pointed out, this is unprecedented, because anyone with a cellphone and internet connectivity can report on what's happening.

    Elon Musk just made it easier:

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I suspect if it were the Taiwanese making this sort of request when the CCP retakes invades Taiwan, Elon would likely ignore it because he has a Tesla plant in mainland China.

        @Axtremus said in The Social Media War:

        …the CCP retakes Taiwan,

        The CCP cannot “retake”’what it never had.

        Only non-witches get due process.

          Fair point, changed the wording.

            Speaking of social media, watch this tik tok on how to start and drive abandoned Russian armored vehicles.

              https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/mar/04/facebook-posts/no-woman-driving-armored-vehicle-isnt-ukrainian-sh/

              A popular TikTok video claims to show a Ukrainian woman teaching people how to drive an abandoned Russian armored personnel carrier amid the war.

              "Ukrainian Tik Toker nastyatyman posted a video on how to drive an abandoned Russian APC," a Feb. 28 Facebook post that features the video says in its caption.

              This isn’t what the clip shows. The TikTok is over a year old, from February 2021, and was posted by a Russian woman named Anastasia Tuman.

              The post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed.
