Tell us all about it then, colonel

Lol, Russian "journalist." Must be the same ones not reporting on the war crimes Russians are committing.

Rot in hell, shitbag.

Good. I used to think she was one of the sane pop idols, but it turns out she's just the same old piece of shit as the majority of them. I hope they make an example out of her waka waka her ass to white collar prison in cuffs.

It was not temporary for me. I had to go into my settings and delete my changes to get it working again.

You can also use the "zap" feature. Just use the lightning bolt icon to the left of the eyedropper and it'll skip step 4. I also found this to work better because selecting shorts ended up always selecting the entire videos section as well.

I think younger people don't give a shit about privacy because they grew up in a post 9/11 surveillance world. Facebook, Instagram and the internet at large became a giant surveillance machine and they've never known another possibility, so it's normalized to them.

Well... then fuck off?

There's no "discussion" to be had with someone arguing in bad faith. The "I'm just asking kweschens" crowd use this method to exhaust any real discussion by putting the pressure on defending against bullshit claims. Bullshit claims shouldn't even be acknowledged and the people presenting them shouldn't be allowed to take part in the discussion. Don't like it? Find a thread that accepts that bullshit. There's a website I know that will be happy to humor that sort of discussion.

Nah, I actually like Wile E. Coyote

Absolutely. Harvard estimates that China's 50 Cent troll army makes 488 million comments per year. And that was their estimate from 2016. Always be skeptical of what you're read, and if you're suspicious, check the poster's comment history.

I actually got a temp ban for calling out a massive Russian troll account on Reddit because, "You have to attack the idea, not the user."

Check OPs posting history. Pro-China content, Pro-Russia content, ignores every article critical of Russia/China. If this isn't a troll account, then OP is the very definition of a useful idiot.
