As it says in the title, the BBC is starting its own Mastodon instance. I think the CBC (and other news networks) should do similar. Particularly with the recent passing of Bill C-18 it seems like a world where the links we share are crossposts to news organization's own content is the perfect resolution to that whole issue.

So y'all are against Chinese "state controlled" social media and whatever, complete with getting all high and mighty about how the state should never interfere in online platforms, but see nothing wrong with a Canadian state controlled social media?

It's different when it's our side. Are you not familiar with irregular sentence structures?

I am keeping an orderly society. You are flirting with facism. They are authoritarians. The Chinese are alien beings Hell-bent on the obliteration of humanity.

I am keeping our citizens alive. You are eliminating democratic protections for fleeting health. They are forcing people to wear masks. The Chinese are alien being Hell-bent on the obliteration of humanity.

Just remember whenever you see inexplicable contradictions in public stances that you're likely dealing with an irregular sentence structuring.
