You want to know what's most chilling to me? At first I couldn't figure out what was going on with this post. Wildly disproportionate likes to views and almost no one was commenting on it. Very few were actually seeing it.
Then I started to look at WHO was liking the post.
Likes are anonymous. That's what was going on. It quickly became apparent the Northern Irish specifically and the British in general OVERWHELMINGLY were liking my post.
They couldn't comment on it and they couldn't share it.. for fear of crackdown. But the algo, recognizing that people liked it, showed it to friendly Americans who COULD share it. And did. By the hundreds.
The natives may only speak in support of their own suicide. That's all the government will let them do openly. If they speak in support of their survival they risk prison.
So they don't.
But they can, as a tiny act of subversion, like a twitter post that says exactly what they wish they could, if they only could.
That's what's happening. That's why everything seemed so wildly off.
Quiet Patriots clicking one button to show they love that finally, they are fighting back.
