        crazy i wonder why the infinity racists amerikkkans decided to start with the platform that is mildly associated with china. surely it has nothing to do with their with the fact that they are most racists people on earth.

      Yes. But the US can control US based companies, and create laws regarding how that data is used. They can’t control a chineese one.

      Do you understand how the US government might think it’s a problem that foreign countries get access to every step their citizens take?

                  No. You can serve without being controlled. And you can be controlled without serving.

                  The waitress is serving me but they’re not being controlled. It’s something they choose to do.

                  And you can be controlled in what you say and so, without serving. E.g. a prisoner.

                  So no. They’re not the same.

                    that is meaningless semantics. both words have multiple meanings, when i said politicians serve corporations i meant that they are ultimately subservient to them because they get paid by them and their live style is contingent on this servitude and that is a system of control in this context both words refer to the same thing.

                    in the example of the waitress she is being controlled when u call them or tell them to get u a certain food u are controlling their actions control doesn’t have to be absolute and it doent have to be forced.

                    a better example would be a social worker who helps people aka serves them but does not respond to them and are not controlled by the people they serve.

                    in the example of a prisoner there is control but no servitude sure, but it is trivial to think of an example where there is control and servitude like a serf, u know cuz world have different meaning and all.
