"Let’s imagine there was a social network called BigotFeed.

It caters toward and kowtows to Far-Right extremists & hate-filled podcasters.

@GottaLaff They are still there because they are comfortable with their 10,000 followers and don’t want to rebuild. Also, they just want to be heard, they don’t want to listen, and really don’t want to interact with “commoners.”

@GottaLaff I’ve been saying it for months.
@AlliFlowers Well, we all have. I know I have.
@GottaLaff Nice to see someone’s listening.
