I started looking into operating my own site on the Fediverse well before the trucker convoy because my perception was that there was extreme censorship on establishment media websites, and I've been proven right time and again. I think I had FBXL Social up and running by March 2021, but I was getting into self-hosting I think in 2020 -- my host at the time was pissed off that I was maxxing out my hosting account so I went all-in. At first I was using friendica, but I found I wasn't getting all the posts directed at me in anything like a reasonable amount of time, so I moved to pleroma and was pleased to find how quickly posts made it back and forth.

How much evidence we've had since then that I was right to do so? Ironically, the trucker convoy was the last straw that had me delete my big tech social media accounts. Once the givesendgo leak occurred, I knew the media would start sniffing around, and I was right. Thankfully I'd already gone dark so they thought I was someone else and as long as I didn't say anything they'd continue believing that.

Now evidence comes out that not only was the Canadian government pushing their own establishment media to lie about what was going on, but they got the US government to help censor big tech social media as well. Impressive, multiple world governments fighting the good fight against bouncy castles.

They wouldn't be fighting so hard if the situation was truly lost. Think back to times when a hegemony actually existed -- Under hegemony, nothing is a threat, so nothing really needs to be fought.

State socialists, hiding behind megacorporations who exist largely because the megastate created them, fulfilling their creed: "Everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state"

But hey, the megagovernments throw a few bread crumbs to FOSS, so all is forgiven.
