Ponzi scheme? 🤔

Twitter will start paying creators... if they pay Twitter first!

Elon Musk says that Twitter will share revenue with content creators *only if* they subscribe $8/month to Twitter Blue.

In other words, Twitter gets paid when they recruit enough suckers...err, "downline distributors".

This sounds a lot like Amway!

Or worse -- one of those shady crypto schemes!

Many of the conservatives who are pushing hardest for book bans in public schools homeschool their kids or send them to private schools.

They still push for this because destruction of public schools as an engine of egalitarianism, democracy and social mobility serves their larger ideological goals of having an unequal society with "good people" like them at the top, served by exploited and ignorant poor underneath.

mastodon.social, mastodon.online and joinmastodon.org were hit by a DDoS yesterday, thankfully joinmastodon.org was already behind Fastly so it didn't have any impact on it. We've now moved mastodon.online behind Fastly and will do the same with mastodon.social soon.
