It's time to forget about shaming Elon Musk. The whole point of his vile attack on Fauci is to Trigger The Libs. Shaming him only persuades his followers he's "drawing blood." We have to adapt to the reality that he is waging right wing information warfare.

Musk’s ugly attack on Fauci shows how right-wing info warfare works

For Elon Musk, the « Triggering » is the point.

Much as Musk irritates me, I feel like the best rational response is to ignore him.

@worm @GregSargent @Aerik agree but it’s hard to replace. There seems to be less going on here and/or I don’t have enough follows yet

@mac2323 Follow more people. You only see who you follow (in the home timeline), stuff won't be thrown at you if you don't follow it. It is very easy to follow enough people to have a deluge of really good posts.

@mac2323 @hackbod yes! follow follow follow boost boost boost and you find that it’s a very active place.

We’re used to social media being served to us by a algorithm that’s guessing at what content we want. It doesn’t work like that here & I love that

@hackbod @mac2323 this is true, took me a couple of weeks here but soon I found I was on here as much as I was Twitter, and over there not at all.
