@mjf_pro @Lady_Star_Gem Nope, disrupting Twitter was a tactical triumph for conservatives. Twitter had long been a tool of community, organization, education and information for marginalized communities. Helped Biden get 82 million votes. Disrupting Twitter is the modern techie bombing of the Black church or opening fire in a gay club. Or burning down Black Wall Street in Tulsa. Disrupting marginalized spaces is terrorism 101 for Christian nationalist white supremacists.
@duaneaubin @mjf_pro @Lady_Star_Gem Yeah... That is why I am kind of torn about totally leaving there. While I hate what he/they are doing to it and it feels righteous & justified to leave, it also feels a little like giving up the battle and leaving the battlefield to them.
@Ted_Cville @duaneaubin @mjf_pro @Lady_Star_Gem I'm not too worried about that. It's not just users who are deserting Twitter, it's advertisers. The more of us leave for saner pastures, the more Elon's advertising revenue declines.
@mike @duaneaubin @mjf_pro @Lady_Star_Gem Well, it's getting so toxic that I have pretty much given up on it. Musk is in the process of making it the Fox news of social media.
@Ted_Cville Yep. The process has continued since I posted this three days ago. The only reason I visit at all now is to see what my football buddies are saying about the World Cup. When that tournament's over, I can't see anything keeping me.
