AutoDisorder··on Is RT.com being censored in the West?
I was able to get to rt.com when using an american vpn. I had to reload 3 times and fill a captcha though.

english.pravda.ru is working though.

AutoDisorder··on Ask HN: Is HN becoming more of an “echo chamber”?
[1] No, not any more than it has been for years

[2] Its always been an echo chamber

[3] Its always been very right wing, very euro/american centric, very male, very white, very middle class.

Its not something you can really fix you might as well just own it and run with it. Huge corporations spend millions on diversity drives and they cant fix the racism and sexism problem, so why would you be able to? You cant. So just accept it and move forward. America was built for white guys. If youre a white guy enjoy it, because the rest of us dont.

If you saw western "civilization" from the outside you would know the whole thing is an echo chamber. So just have fun with it and quit worrying about it.

I usually dont interact on this forum because I get extremely hostile responses to the point that in the rare times when I do write something I never make the mistake of checking the replies. They are always filled with racist, sexist, right wing political abuse

AutoDisorder··on ReCAPTCHA (A Google Service) Privacy Concerns
People make good points about hCaptcha being as bad as ReCAPTCHA. Are there any alternatives to captchas? Because captchas seem to be discrimating against people outside of the western world, discriminate against people with disabilities, have lots of privacy concerns, are being used to train google AIs, etc.
