X has taken its stance. Nazis on the platform are allowed. Pro-Hitler posts are allowed. Holocaust denial is allowed.

If you stay on a platform like that, you can't escape this creeping normalization. Even if you think you can.

"Oh, there goes another Holocaust denier. Just part of being online, I guess."

"Oh, another transphobe calling people dehumanizing slurs. Well that's the Internet for you."

Creeping normalization is like advertising. Even if you think it won't influence you, it will.

@eloquence I am torn between Elon's Idea of making X.com a collective mind of humans and X.com to become a dark web social platform.
There are both "good" and "bad" voices around the globe. If we don't know what the "bad" voices say, how can we make the human race better?

You don't have to tweet alongside them to find out, just as you don't have to maintain a 4chan profile or a Stormfront account to find out about what kind of shit goes on there.
