U.S. government websites have gone dark as agencies scrambled to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive orders declaring his administration would recognize only two genders and ordering an end to diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

        Yeah, but I mean things like fediverse banned, web archive and Wikipedia blocked, liberal news outlets blocked, etc.

        I give it another year or two, tops, but I feel like it’s coming.

          I have a Facebook page where I posted lots of links to peertube videos. I get an error each time I post another peertube video and the thumbnails don’t show up anymore.

          They’re already banning fediverse content.

          Facebook was taking down links talking about Linux as cybersecurity risks a week or so ago.

          They can try, but its hard to band stuff that’s decentralized like that. All they realistically could do is prevent companies and organizations based in the us from federating, or federating with anything outside.

      last year when a number of states started to effectively ban adult content.

      -You could also argue it happened a lot sooner over a decade back when every high traffic website started transforming into a walled garden.

        Simple, next Wednesday the 5th you go protest at your downtown. Everyone in the country hopefully. If this doesn’t happen, at least the response we get might get some views. I assume it won’t be a happy encounter in Republican States. But then there may not be any encounter there at all. But this is it. This is the chance before online organization becomes illegal or whatever they do about it.

    They want you to forget what they did so they can do it again.

        Some people really don’t like celebrating diversity for some reason.

                You have anything of substance, besides attempts to belittle? Real question, do you have anything of value to say? Anything at all? I’ll wait as long as it takes you to have a genuine thought.

    The sad part is, even if the next government is going to be more open-minded again, it is doubtful whether they’d want to spend the effort to reintroduce all of the content, solutions etc.
