By banning some of us, Musk is sending a message to everyone else: Comply with the dictator or lose access. #Twitter has become a virtual simulation of authoritarian rule."
But Musk didn’t build Twitter. We, collectively, turned the bird app into a consequential power. If it remains under the control of a man who sees journalists as enemies, we have a moral responsibility to fly the coop.

@gilduran I left right after learning he bought it.
Though I wouldnt promote the fact that you wrote something about "radical conservativism." Conservativism is literally about maintaining the status quo and thus can never be radical.
What you are speaking of is reactionary, not radical, and is fascism, not conservativism. Biden is a conservative, people just wildly misuse the term, as they do with most ideological terms, since Reagan.
@edgeoforever @gilduran Republicans do stand for various things. Misogyny, racism, and transphobia are all things. Nationalism is thing.
Biden is hardly progressive. He did feign further left than I expected, but also not as left as he campaigned on. Progressives do not break strikes for rail barons.
