Turkey's candidate against Erdogan didn't do it until he lost the election; now the whole country paying the price

If he already lost the election, I don't think stepping down mattered.

Every world leader above 60 should be out of office. They don't have the same opinions and energy of the people they are leading into climate change beyond saving, and increased interest of Fascism.

No you don't understand, we use this bot to deem people as biased. Ignoring that all media is biased to its owners' financial interest and nothing else.

Hell Lemmy.world has banned active users posting NBC and CBS and other reputable news outlets because they shared them too often.

The mods who installed this bot act like its some major service, when all it does is enforce the shifted overton window and acts like news and trends isn't bought and sold to the highest bidder.

This bot doesn't improve anything, it doesn't make mods jobs easier, it just wastes energy like Bitcoin and AI farms.
