As a Californian, I am fully used to being horrifically underrepresented proportionally in national politics, danke. Tax our billionaires. Give us healthcare. Make us use public transportation and drive on better roads. Do your worst. I triple dog dare you.
and as a citizen of a country other than the US, we’re very used to america being horrifically overrepresented in any sort of politics ever no matter what :p so swings and roundabouts i guess
What do we need to do to get him to remove it from America?
Join the EU.
Or pass their Digital Services Act and GDPR Laws in the USA.
Sadly, for the USA, each option is about as likely as the other.
Get New York and California to pass it. Might be enough. California has sort of done it lol
California is the EU of America.
Cries from the UK.
I’d vote to create the EAU. I think there’s a real thirst for having some sanity over here.
As a EU citizen - no thanks, unless you get like ten seats in the EU parliament at most.

Okay, good note.
What if we made Canameximerica first and then joined?
I mean, I’m feeling a vibe here.
Laws like these would thankfully get killed dead by the first amendment in the USA.
Stop trying to kill the Internet with overbearing government regulations.
Just join Mastodon and you will not have to wait for Elon.
