I know a lot of people are complaining about overuse of the word "gaslighting" but I think it very much applies to the way that big corporate social media sites will hide adult content from you and then try to convince you it was your choice
"This post contains content you have chosen not to see" except I never chose that, I purposely selected the "show me adult content" option
"No results for [sex worker's handle]" AND YET if I follow a link I saved, it takes me directly to their page, where I can see they have posted within the last 24 hours
As someone with piss-poor memory and organizational skills, it scares the fuck outta me that the more I use tech to augment my mental processes, the more in-roads tech companies have to screw around with my fundamental perceptions of reality
Post the take that will get CoHost's servers raided by a shadowy government agency. Post the take that will cause your books to be pulled from the shelves and burned. The take that will get your knighthood rescinded, your country embargoed, your yacht attacked by orcas, your robe to change from grey to black. Post something that will ensure no one can ever write a biography of you without heavy censoring. The take that will become the replacement for 'shouting fire in a crowded theater' when people discuss the limits of free speech. Cause your hometown to rename itself to avoid the shame. Make the UN security council act in full accord against you. Be the obvious reason we haven't heard from alien life.
