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 @worm @GregSargent @Aerik it's definitely more work to get your feed humming along out here - took me several weeks. I ended up moving to a busier server and then hashtags worked a lot better for me to find folks I was interested in following. Definitely a barrier to entry for some folks trying Mastodon out...
