Yeah, that's the disease.

> Cognitive Dissonance just means that the person is trying to hold in his head two contradictory arguments at the same time

Cognitive dissonance is the condition created by being unable to reconcile two contradictory ideas; it's not the ideas themselves. People believe contradictory things all the time, but it doesn't tend to gnaw at them.

> solipsism ( the idea that the self is the only real existence ) to be used to describe behaviors associated to the original meaning of selfishness

It's still misuse of the term, which starts with the premise that you cannot be certain of any other consciousnesses because you have only your own observations, and they are filtered through your consciousness. "Solipsism" isn't selfishness, it's "For all I know, I'm a brain in a jar or I'm hallucinating and none of this is real." You can be certain you exist, but you have only your own perceptions (which may not be real) to prove that I exist. That's solipsism, it's got nothing to do with selfishness. That's why things like this:

> since given that a solipsist believes only his existence matters

are incorrect. "What matters" and "what you know to be true" are different.

So why hasn't Big Tech come after Fedi like they did with Parler and Gab ?.

Well, there's a couple of reasons.

1) Instances size number : in other words, they consider instances like FSE , KF, SPC and neckbeard as "small flies".

2) Decentralization : Decentralization allows a " Hydra effect", take down one instance and two more will pop up in their place. Even when federating between each other, it would nullify their efforts on shuthing dissidents down ( or more yet, stopping them from organizing ).

3) Friendly Fire: Big Tech can not take once instance alone of fedi because of 2) , if they were to take down even they "right wing" side of Fedi, they would need to take it down ENTIRELY. This creates a problem, since many staffers at Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc are connected to progressives in the masto crowd. This will backfire immediately with the progressive MSM turning on them ( for "denying a safe space to sexual minorities and marginalized people " ). A PR disaster.

4) Lolbertarian LOL : the instances are run people, not corporations. The instances do not pay alliance to any market regulation enforced by Big Tech no do they care. This make any threat hollow and void, since they are unenforceable.

finally something i can afford!!

facebook correcting my :( to 😞 is forced boomer-fication

@Jessica @fluffy @enigmatico they hid the I in FB

Normie: "Facebook is stealing my data through WhatsApp!"

Me: "How about you switch to a decentralized alternative?"

Normie: "Fuck that! I'll just make a mock account on Facebook!"

Me: "That won't do anything. They'll still know who you are through your phone"

Normie: "Then I will make a WhatsApp mockup account! They won't know it's me!"

Me: "Oh, really? Will you also provide a fake, probably stolen phone number too? Will you use a proxy, TOR, I2P, or at least a VPN to hide your IP address? Will you also route your DNS queries through TOR or at least a safe enough DNS server over HTTPS? Will you also root your device and spoof your MAC address, as well as your IMEI, phone brand, model, serial number, OS version, AND your WLAN SSID? Will also ALL of your contacts do the exact same thing, so that they don't know who is who and who is contacting who? Will you at least give a fake name?"

Normie: "... Fuck that shit! I'm switching to Telegram!"

Me: ​
