As an American, yea. We deserve that. I'm sorry. We've failed Ukraine and the world.

Yeah but you see Putin has some very special tapes of Trump so...

In the age of deep fakes noone cares, even if that is true

The cult wouldn't care if he admitted to it, post-leak, and the fascist ruling party would simply refuse to hold him accountable.

Does this post title contain zero-width characters or something? It slipped past my app's filters.

[–] [email protected] 57 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I was setting a little trap for any AI response bots. I don't think that any exist, but I was curious. I apologize if it broke your filters, it was just a one-off experiment.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 hours ago

That's crazy, I never thought about that kind of trap before

[–] [email protected] 24 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

Do you have a way to check if it's still breaking filters? That wasn't the intent, since it's affecting normal users I've now edited to remove the sketchy characters.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Your fix worked, and the post is not visible in my normal feed now.

Still, all the client devs probably just collectively emitted an audible eye roll.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 hours ago

That's me: Always breakin' stuff. Sorry about that.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, that seems to have fixed it for me. If I remove the keyword from my filter list and visit the community, the post shows up. But once I add that keyword back to the filter and visit the community, the post is gone.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 hours ago

Sounds good. Apologies again, it just didn't occur to me that that would happen.

Good call out. I am using Connect and it broke my filter as well.

Edit: yes.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 11 hours ago

Is this the official plan now, and was it the same one that Russian propaganda channels were leaking?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I was half expecting a "deal" along the lines of "all Ukrainians fuck off somewhere else and don't ever come back, and me and my ~~boss~~ pal Vlad are going to turn Ukraine into a luxury riviera" - this shit is pretty close...

You’re thinking of Palestine.
