What drives me crazy is that pretty much everyone on Majority Report, which I really enjoy as a progressive voice, still uses it. While criticizing it and Musk.
I can sort of understand the addiction of these things, but if I was able to break free of Reddit after 13 years, surely they can break free of Twitter.
It's a circlejerk now isn't it? Not just because it is filled with nazis but if you are not logged in you can't search, you can't see full threads and you can't view tweets in date posted order. People with no twitter account cannot interact with it in full so unless you want to market to nazis what reason is there to continue operations there?
Honestly not enough furry artists have joined Mastodon for me to care to make an account. I heard there's a lot joining Bsky though so I'll check it out if I eventually get an invite.
Elon is a free speech absolutist. He supports Nazis, the KKK, misinformation, racism, sexism, homophobia, ect.
But what he can't abide is anyone that hurts his fee fee, people he disagrees with, and people that expose his awfulness. After all, he has to draw a line SOMEWHERE.
I'm glad I never accepted whichever TOS agreement would have required me to obey an order to appear before Xlon Muxk on his whims. He doesn't understand the concept of "other people".
This Elon shit is basically the new gorilla marketing. Bad publicity is publicity and a lot of human beings are daf and feed into it. It's working too... Even if it's negative ...it's working... For him... They/he want you to feed into it.
