For the millionth time: the number of bots tweeting about something doesn't imply a lot of people are actually seeing the tweets.

Also, afaik all the botometers are crap, so studies based on them are also crap.

You should get more information than just from mainstream media.

Otoh the real issue probably is that information does not even matter, only group affiliation does. You'll just believe what confirms your world view and filter out the rest, and so does everybody else.

"attempt to install a different regime"

How can anybody believe such nonsense? Sorry, but simply taking over the capitol doesn't automatically make you the ruler of a new regime. It's not a video game were you get made king when you conquer the target zone.

You can be against both things at the same time (cancelling said party and said party's plans against neutrality).

Thanks!

Are there good politically neutral alternatives to Stripe and Twilio? Asking for a friend.

As long as you aware that the friend is imaginary, perhaps. If it gets to real, I'd say it is a mental illness.

Not sure if you can simply create that by willpower/meditation, though. Although it seems very likely that it is possible to deliberately fuck up one's mental health. After all, it is possible to fuck up one's physical health, too.

Maybe somebody could create an AI that evaluates the factfulness of articles.

I'm not convinced deliberately trying to create an imaginary friend is a good idea. It sounds like deliberately inducing mental illness.

You can quit your job, though. And you can negotiate with management. The only reason you are a serf is because you choose to be one. (Spare me the "many people can't afford to quit their job" comments - save money, or look for a better job)

Isn't that standard fare for workplaces everywhere in the world now? Not that I like it much, but it seems to be the normal approach.
