Didn't happen with EU's internet laws. Instead, we get cookie banners all over the world. I don't think exiting a market full of money because of ideology is good business.
This year "Meta" basically said they might have to leave the EU. Some of the reactions were "and good riddance !".
To be fair, it's the USA, starting with the police-state-like Patriot Act, that basically made US companies illegal in the EU...
(I don't remember if there were any revelations in the Snowden scandal about Facebook helping the NSA to spy on EU citizens, companies, governments... IIRC the documents (we got) talked mostly about Google and Microsoft ?)
For there to be a parallel in that specific case, that community would’ve had to have had the power to prosecute and enforce judgments against any organisation that published blood libels.
“Othering” has moved from race to political viewpoint, but the human tendency to exclude others from discourse/commerce/society is still alive and well.
>“Othering” has moved from race to political viewpoint
No it hasn't. People have been othered for either reason for millennia, and continue to be so. This is probably one of the safest eras for having an unpopular political view in the US. For example, try being accused of holding communist views during most of the 20th century.
Lol. Are you for real? Try expressing any concerns about the excesses of the trans activists or concerns about the demographic replacement of europeans. People who do that wish they were treated like communists in the 50s!
>Try expressing any concerns about the excesses of the trans activists or concerns about the demographic replacement of europeans
People do this all the time. If their biggest complaint is being banned from privately owned social media companies, then they have it much better than the communists or anarchists of the past.
While I think the hate of Texas is unusual in this thread, this is an awful comparison. Please don't use comparisons that trivialize the horrors of the Holocaust.
