It's hard to watch people spend a day criticizing Zuckerberg and then see them posting links to all the products that make him rich.

@Gustodon It’s just like listening to “leftist” podcasters rant about all the nazis on Xitter, then end the show by saying something thing like, “You can follow me on X @ TotalQuisling.”
@OGJester @Gustodon Or liberal messages delivered via Substack. (I still can't believe that Nader is still there. I've heard nothing back from writing to his team.)
@mason Robert Reich is another one that mystifies me. I have no use for people who are comfortable hanging out in a nazi bar. @Gustodon

Catch-22: Mastodon is largely an echo chamber of people who believe vaguely the same things. Few on Mastodon need convincing; at this point it's mostly virtue signaling and purity tests.

While some folks are just glomping onto trendy topics, fair weather allies, if you're trying to reach an audience of people who don't already believe they should eat the rich, where would they go instead?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Now, NPR reading ads for the Kennedy center using the new name: 🤮

@zimzat @OGJester @Gustodon I try to reach people on LinkedIn, but it's hard to get traction there. The algorithms only show me other activists now, despite most of the connections I have there not being activists.

THIS is why it will take orders of magnitude more pain before it gets better.

I hate Fakebook. I use it because there are people on there in the disc golf community so I can communicate with them. That being said, it is a cesspool. It is full of trolls and liars. The other day I reported a post that said that Democrats should be "filled with lead" and it came back that it did not violate their community standards. So at this point in time they have no community standards. I do block the ads on there and I also have a small friends list. Fuck them!

@BluesHarp Suggest to the disc golf friends that you assemble on Friendica instead?
