We didn't really build any of it. It was all designed by a bunch of old white slave owners over 200 years ago. What we can do now is keep things from getting worse and try to make steady progress along the way. Voting isn't everything, but it's still important.

YouTube and Instagram already have identical features. Most US creators who post on Tik Tok also use those platforms already

How is Biden oppressing those groups? We are in this position (bans on healthcare, etc.) because Trump's three SCOTUS picks overturned Roe v Wade and opened the door for all the insane fascist shit going on right now in the Republican controlled states. A majority of people live in Democratic controlled states that have protections for these groups. Things could get so much worse if Trump is given any more power. His first Presidency already set half of the states in the country back over 50 years in terms of women's rights. He's also promised to enforce the Comstock Act which would effectively ban abortion nationwide by preventing medical supplies used for abortion related healthcare to be sent in the mail. Not only that but hate crime rates have also gone up since Trump's first Presidency enabled white supremacists to express their views more openly.

Abortion is already codified in some states that are under Democratic control. But Biden is President of the US, not of each individual state. He doesn’t have the power to write or enforce state law. His Department of Justice is challenging some state laws in court. It is not codified at a federal level because Democrats do not have enough votes in the Senate or House to do that. Packing SCOTUS also would require Senate approval.

And I didn’t gaslight anybody or say who to vote for. I only asked how Biden contributes to a fascist America and pointed out that the extremism in this country resulted from Trump’s presidency. The damage that Trump did to this country will take generations to fix and Biden doesn’t have the power to fix everything on his own.

Definitely look into Next DNS. There are also some Safari extensions that can block ads.

I also suggest buying refurbished unlocked phones in the future instead of going for the carrier freebies which you can see are scams designed to lock you into paying for their overpriced service each month for over a year.

iPhone has the better reputation for privacy/security, however it is proprietary software and so no one can really tell for sure what kind of data that Apple might collect on you.
