You could go to jail for USING a VPN to access those sites. It also allows the government to “regulate and shut down” any social media site with more than 1 million users. Meaning that all big social media networks would have to do whatever the government wants, since the govenment has a constant threat of banning their network at their fingertips.

When we hit 999,999 we can just open a new site to stay under the limit, like with FDIC insurance

I’m pretty sure is way more harsh than anything China does to their citizens if they go beyond the great fire wall

This actually pisses me off. Mention that the US does what China does but worse with its own great firewall and you get called a “tankie”. Then it happens and those same people are shocked and appalled at how the government came to this conclusion of oversight. Americans always talk as if they would have personally fought against the prejudice that existed during the Cold War and every other Xenophobic scare before falling into the current one. Then they deny ever having fallen for it.

The United States is looking increasingly unhinged and only the Europeans worshipping their shitty fast food and entertainment still have this positive image of them.

In communist china, western sites are banned but the government doesn’t even care about VPNs to access them. The US wants to become china but worse

Also wasn’t the US backing off on Maduro for oil? Or did Biden forget? Or did the deal fall off?

The US allowed venezuelan companies to produce and sell oil, they removed the oil sanctions. The problem is that most refineries (these were made using american parts back in the 60’s/70’s) were broken and lacking parts. It seems the US and Russia both offered the needed money to fix it.
