The stuff going on, on the other app is dictator 101.
1. Start a coup, win it.
2. Convince people it’s about freedom.
3. Criticism leads to harsher restrictions of said freedoms.
4. Labels any critic an enemy.
5. Rewards loyalists with status (gold vs blue checks).
6. Triggers exodus of the outspoken and successful under prior regime.

@georgetakei The superpower of a dictator. Convincing people that you won’t be. That you believe in all freedoms to only 5 minutes of being in leadership to convince those same people that harsh and strict measures HAD to be taken.

Jelani CobbThe arguments for remaining on twitter to “fight” remind me of the gambling adage that the house always wins. “Fighting” there is like gambling and thinking you’ll eventually beat the house. But even if you win $10,000 at the slot machine it’s because it’s in the casino’s bigger interests to give you $10,000.
