@xmacdonald @godlessmom @SueW251161 hey thanks! Have a lovely day!

@xmacdonald @godlessmom @SueW251161 Certainly not my place to tell her she’s wrong about her feelings. But to tell her that she might reconsider her actions In how she’s publicly labeling people, I feel OK about. She herself doesn’t seem shy about telling people when she doesn’t agree with what they’re doing!
That said, I will sit down anytime she asks me to. It’s her thread.

@godlessmom @SueW251161 I agree with you about not giving value to Musk; that’s why I’m leaving Twitter. And also, Twitter has 400 million users, about 10 times the population of Canada, which BTW also allows Nazis to reside there. People have developed all kinds of sub communities and support systems on Twitter. And, some now see it as a place to fight Nazis. Can you really not imagine any reason other than immorality why anyone might have stayed so far?

@godlessmom @SueW251161 Absolutely, not questioning who you follow or your reasons. But many of the people still posting on that app have the same moral vision as you do for how they want their country and their world to be, they just do the math differently about the value of continuing to post there. You can think they’re doing the math wrong without concluding that they’re “not your people”. Don’t make enemies out of people who aren’t!

@juddlegum I know ridiculous people can still bring down a democracy, and I shouldn’t laugh, but really. Lern to spel you’re authoratarian agenduh write, guy’s. Marshall Law indeed.

@rickhasen This is some neofascist ish right here. Becoming a real familiar pattern.

@dickscurvy took me a minute, but dats funny

@historynewbie I too have been posting about Mastodon in Birdland, but I have not yet been declared dangerous, probably because I am not as handsome, charismatic and persuasive as you are.

@jbf1755 I need a little more danger in my online life, so I followed Newbie. Never could resist a handsome outlaw.

@jsit so I am awkwardly trying to figure out how to show someone that I read and appreciated their post, in the absence of a “like” button, without a) clogging their feed with a million banal comments b) clogging my own feed with a million boosts, or c) stuffing my “favorites” till something crashes. Any thoughts on the etiquette and logistics?
