Alex WildThe willingness of people to provide all sorts of free labor and art to a Nazi political movement is really shocking.
Y’all need to get off Twitter.
That’s literally what you are doing by posting there. Keeping a white supremacist venture afloat.
Watching supposed “collectivists” fail to conduct the easiest collective action ever- collectively ceasing to write unpaid for a fascist-owned business- is quite frankly baffling.
Like, what are you even doing? Is your addiction that deep?
If a Nazi bar held open mic Mondays, where you could go and say anything you like about, say, abortion rights or climate change or reparations, would you go?
Of course not. Even when your message is antithetical to Nazis, you’d be still helping Nazis by going to their bar.
Because it’s a Nazi bar.
“But I reach a lot of people with my public service messages at the Nazi bar!”
I dunno. Do religious minorities feel comfortable enough in the Nazi bar to follow you in?

I think people believe the numbers are true. I thought they were mostly bots, no?

MelissaOK, I have a 26-year-old friend who has heart surgery in two weeks and doesn't know how to use Mastadon. I know many disabled people who don't have the money for computers and access everything solely on their phones.
The disability community don't all have the cognitive skills, physical energy or even technology to migrate all at once.
I have kept my twitter account to communicate with these friends who are in and out of the hospital.
That's not morally wrong imho
monkeytime@MelonDC @nathaliaassaad Exactly. The disability communities that have grown through years of effort in Twitter are lifesavers for so many people. It's exceedingly difficult to abandon those support networks in a month. But folks like Alex don't have room in their worldview for complexities like that. Must be nice to be so simple-minded.
@tmorman @MelonDC @nathaliaassaad it sucks that Nazis bought Twitter. It really does. Do you think the disability community has a future on a communication platform run by people who don’t think they should exist?
@alexwild That's kind of you to point out, as if we don't know that.
No, but I think the people I know don't have the physical ability to migrate right now.
A kinder way to put this is to talk about supporting the disability community, and how they could be helped migrating. There are challenges.
But that's fine. Have a good day.
