Elon Musk is aggressively leaning into anti-vaxx while aggressively tweaking the algorithm on one of the biggest communication systems in the world to serve his preferred political content.
This is so fucked.
He is going to kill so many people.

@gwensnyder 🎯 Spot. On. This is why "staying to fight" is a fool's errand-- not only are the Twitter faithful willfully engaging in asymmetric warfare, they're doing so against a foe that controls virtually every aspect of the battlefield. Nothing good can come out of remaining on Twitter. Nothing.

the fight should be to get people there to move here.
By promoting engagement on Twitter, they’re actually helping the foe spread his lies.
@gwensnyder It is more important to protect vulnerable Comrades than ever, but as long as this is achieved, let the MAGA creeps die screaming.
The more of them kill themselves off, the better for the future of our species.
We won't be able to tackle the climate crisis if we permit ourselves to be burdened by attending to the inande whims of boomer whitebread right-wingers.
@gwensnyder When you look at it from the perspective of the Darwin Theory, it eliminates from society the Musk Cult, so Elon Musk is just eliminating his own base of support.
Let Mother Nature take her course!
Let #Karma do what Karma does!
@gwensnyder The silver lining is that he’s going to kill his own people, who would anyways have voted for the right wingers.
Hopefully that ends up putting centrists and leftists in a better position once the right herd is thinned.
Not how I would want it to play out. Just how it is going to play out. 😞
Conversely, stopping Elon Musk from optimizing Twitter for antivax lies will save many lies.
@gwensnyder Yes, he is.
And for everyone trying to celebrate this as Darwinism in action, these folks live in society with us, breathe our shared air, vote against climate and disease mitigations, fight against school vaccination requirements, and so on.
Vulnerable people who have nothing to do with him or Twitter WILL be hurt, and it’s honestly fucked up to celebrate that.
