@BCMetisMan @MissingThePt Dorsey, Musk, Theil. These guys see themselves as having “taken the red pill” when they’re really just high on their own supply.
As for RFK Jr, he’s an absolute degenerate:
Been out of the loop for awhile so forgive me for doubting that "enshitification" is a real word in use today. 😎
@MissingThePt Ridiculous. There will never be a social network that contains no users or content that bother you. But there doesn't need to be--the platform just needs to give you control over what gets surfaced to you, and they are doing exactly that.
You're judging a platform because of one user, promoting one [admittedly stupid/dangerous] person, one time. You wouldn't even see that post without following someone who surfaced to you or going looking for it. Cynical, unfair, and irrational.

Tracking what/who Jack promotes on a platform he started/backed seems like a rational and fair form of situational awareness to me.
And its not only that the named person is admittedly stupid/dangerous but the damage this kind of
propaganda/promotion can do.
It's not about "the thing that bothers you" It's about the propaganda/advertising/boosting/promotion to a large audience of that person and what surrounds him.
