"It’s not (just) that Bluesky’s board includes the guy who sold Twitter to Elon Musk. It’s not (just) that Threads is owned by Facebook, a cancer of a company founded to nonconsensually rate the fuckability of Harvard undergrads (incredibly, that was Facebook’s least terrible moment. It got worse after that)."

For months now I have pondered how credible media, thought leaders, authors and others with whom I had enjoyed engagement, sharing info and perspective remain the cesspool that has "X'd" itself. As it is said, "You cannot destroy the Master's house, using the Master's tools."
#BlackTwitter is failing its marketing brand sitting in the cesspool. Years ago, I proposed and set up an alternative to Facebook for Black chatter. Free of ads, etc. Failed. What was I thinking??? 🤔
