The vice president attended the opening ceremony in Milan, where people also protested the presence of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at the Winter Olympics.
Streisand the fucking thing.
Wasn‘t he complaining last year in Germany about how in Europe free speech was under attack? I am certain he will criticise Musk the same now, right? Right?
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo B O O O O O O O O O O
Post it on Mastodon and here instead.
The REAL free speech platforms.
Is that enough? Isn’t there only like 11 million on mastadon?
Love the Streisand effect. I had no idea there was footage of this cabbage patch chimp getting booed at the Olympics until they blocked it 😆
In Canada we don’t censor that sort of stuff so watching the CBC stream was funny. All applause then the couch pest showed up and the entire stadium mood changed. Americans truly don’t realize they are jokes outside of their country.
No we definitely know and also consider ourselves jokes
Stop using Musk’s products.
Fuck you NBC.
What was it musk said? something about censorship by tyrants?
Free speech absolutist.
Do we do cake day comments on lemmy? Whatever. Happy cake day!
If the instance and/or app is gonna show it, I think it’s ok to mention it!
Probably DMCA. The Olympic committee is very jealous and very aggressive. They control all recordings strictly.
No I’m sorry this is strictly on NBC and American fragility. Streams of the Olympics in all other countries didn’t mess with audio. I heard Israel being booed as well as America.
ICE providing security for American politicians in another country? Don’t they have a dedicated security group called the Secret service or something like that?
Makes me think they’re there to scan the entire stadium and upload it to their new tracking database
Yeah but the party prefers their brown shirts.
I prefer brown pants
Isn’t that Trump’s nickname at this point?
Most countries send a policing presence to major international sporting tournaments.
Yeah? Their specialised immigration police? Interesting, I didn’t know that. /s
Considering many of the issues would relate to customs or international travel, then yes there is often a customs/immigration element.
Why? You at in a different country. Why would you send YOUR immigration agents. That’s like bringing your own chef to a restaurant you don’t own.
Watch some recording of the Olympics when the Nazis were still around and your realize why ICE is there.
Why? Because there are people arriving from around the world, and this quickly overwhelms local policing.
How adorable! It’s all the fuck over YouTube
Yes but if the presenters didn’t mention it, I could not detect boos from the video alone.

I have noticed this often when someone gets booed. Pretty obvious when you are there but not on video. As an audio nerd it has me perplexed.
I also think they were ready for that and they masked it live. It doesn’t make any sense for the presenters to mention the booing if you can’t even hear it in the recording. It must have been very loud.
I don’t know how one would mask it Maybe the crowd is totally overdubbed. I cannot find phone recordings. Are all phone uploads of the event being rejected by YouTube?
It’s not hard to mask them, just lower the microphones from the audience or play something else instead
Ask yourselves, why do officials need ICE protection when they have the Secret Service?
Everyone hates you Vance. They hate you because you are dumb and you suck and you are a bad person.
and a couch fucker
I’ve seen NBC edited out the boos on their broadcast
People should just upload it (slightly cut or stretched) again and again. And again.
Nitecore edit (S L O W E D + R E V E R B)
