Your Twitter/X account is a microphone connected to a mixer controlled by a fascist. You can speak all you want. The fascist controls your volume and can mute you whenever he wants. And you might not even know you’ve been muted because you can still hear yourself in your headphones.
It’s not called resistance when your volume knob is in someone else’s hand.
@aral The problem: There is no more open microphone heard by most of the free world.
The possible alternatives are either explicitly made not to be heard widely like the #fediverse or clones of twitter with the same problems all over again.
@exception @aral Twitter was never "heard by most of the free world".
The vast majority of people were never on Twitter.
