It looks weird, but the 20x before this change referred to the 5-hour limit, not the weekly limit. They're removing the 5-hour limit altogether.

So the weekly limit is not changing, just the naming is less confusing now. And the title of this post is false and should be changed.

Lula's victory was a US psyops? That's some 4D chess.

Oh, in this particular case they have no need, as both candidates are friendly to Russia.

>I think this framing is pretty much disinformation itself.

Russian troll factories etc are a documented fact, not an opinion. It goes way beyond just "influencing elections".

They are children compared to Putin in the art of geopolitical manipulation. If he didn't wield his skills so malignantly, I'd be impressed.

>Why is it always Russia?

Why indeed.

That's an interesting angle. Is that a fact, though? Far-right has usually been in bed with Putin.

Interesting how pro-democracy wave after wave strike the shore as Russia's resources dwindle. Perhaps Russia is/was the only thing still keeping those monsters up?

To my personal shock, Digg is good now.

Highlights, imho:

1. aggregation of multiple sources into single posts

2. no comment sections

3. UI is pretty nice now

I don't understand the question. Greed exists in every human system because it's a human quality, not a system quality. Real people are driven by many, sometimes conflicting things at the same time.

Non-greedy action is by definion an action that doesn't directly and materially benefit the one acting. That is universal across all political and I would argue all biological systems.

There are lots of drives besides greed.
