A lot of people have been like "Haha, he's such a goofy billionaire that makes bad decisions" and "He doesn't know what he's doing" but I can't help but feel like limiting our access to one of the most important communication tools on the planet as fascism rises- is intentional. It has to be.

@roxiqt
From my point of view that makes little sense.

If my intention was to spread more fascism, birdsite is a great place to do that.

I would therefore continue to turn birdsite into a pressure cooker for hate and extremism.

That's what "the algorithm" is good for: You can automatically silence annoying opinions, push more extreme views, weld together groups with similar opinions.

It is not a communication tool. If someone else decides who is heard and who is not, that is not communication. It's "reuse of provided text bites for propaganda".
