      Well for one because my work is blocking your link. I’ve requested they remove it from the block list though. I’m not in fucking Brazil!

      I’m a bit surprised Xvideos is still viewable in “Tread on me, daddy!” states like Texas. (Maybe Paxton really thought it was Elen’s homemade porn site? Just kidding, it’s Czech owned, they can just ignore his deranged lawsuits. And now the most visited porn site in the world. Republicans are killing American jobs, confirmed.)

        There’s a ridiculous amount of porn sites out there. Banning the big daddy Pornhub is just going to drive people to those who are generally less moderated, or teach them how to bypass such blocks - which maybe teaches some folks some media competency again.

          Pornhub wasn’t banned from Texas; it banned states like Texas, Florida, and Kentucky from access because of their ridiculous “must put self on government list to see porn” laws.

            Same difference. There’s bans or talks about bans like this in other countries too, for the same reasons basically.

    I used a burner account that wasn’t following many users, and the videos the X TV app offered me on first viewing includes a Megyn Kelly video accusing Tim Walz of committing “stolen valor,” a report from right-wing social media influencer Andy Ngo and Carlson’s fawning interview with historian Darryl Cooper who performs some revisionist history by calling Winston Churchill “the chief villain of the Second World War.”

    I’m honestly surprised they’re outright saying the Allies were the villains now…

    Like, it’s almost enough for me to try and Google the “historian” to see if she thinks Russia or the Nazis were the good guys.

    You’d think they wouldn’t push Russia because back then they claimed to be communist, but it’s not like logical consistency matters to them. They like Russia now, so they could very well claim Russia was always the good guys.

    Or they could just be more blatantly pro Nazi then they used to be.

    Let me guess, the content is: blatant nazi propaganda, shilling of shitcoins, and advertising for the stupidest implementation of the most dystopian technology you can think of.

          Basically a lot of shows by former Fox News hosts and other far right vodcasters who are too extreme to be promoted on more mainstream platforms.

    isn’t it basically the old twitter app with less content people would actually want to watch and more rubbish partisan political content?

    It’s good to see both sides of the cake. Personally I like to peep both X and mastodon . The contrasts tells me were we are at.

      both sides of the cake

      This two sided cake analogy is a new one for me.
