I see people against reinstating #Trump on #Twitter encouraging others to vote on #Musk’s #poll. I totally get where they’re coming from but this legitimises what he’s doing and moves it from a terrible joke to the results being taken seriously. I think that’s the plan, folks.
@nisreen yeah, I want nothing to do with that man’s tweets.
@nisreen I agree with you, but ……
Unfortunately curiosity got the better of me, so I had to vote and when I saw that the majority want to allow Trump back, I panicked!
@nisreen do not support tyrannical behavior even if you are curious to see the results.
@nisreen he'll do it anyway and use the poll as cover. It could easily have a million votes from botnets and troll farms
@nisreen Trump rejoining Twitter will be the final act that will make me close my account. I currently keep it to watch the road crash unfold and feel guilty for increasing the visitor numbers.
@IChewPorridge @nisreen
And that too is part of the plan :(
All these things are intended to drive us off Twitter, which is why I for one intend to stay as long as I can!
@IChewPorridge @nisreen same here: Trump returns an the app is deleted.
@IChewPorridge @nisreen me too. Will be deleting my account there as soon as he's reinstated
@nisreen Probably. However, if or when, the other man-child rejoins, the Twitter ranks will become even more extreme. How long till official government accounts will leave? It becomes like buying shoes from the street sellers in front of a shoestore. Buying from them makes one complicit.
@nisreen 100%. Best response to that poll is to deactivate your #Twitter account. Voting gives Musk encouragement.
@nisreen He’s already talking about the ‘all time high’ in Twitter usage (as everyone flocks to see things burn) and the poll was getting ~1mn votes an hour. The rule about not feeding trolls comes to mind
@nisreen perhaps, the plan is top get a left Mastodon and a right twitter
