    It’s delusional to think you’re going to change things from inside the platform. Would you go on Trump’s platform to argue with MAGA cultists? This is no different.

    Getting a smart comeback on Elon isn’t the W you think it is; you’re still using his platform and validating it and keeping it relevant. Just stop using it.

      I’m not arguing that it’s a W. I’m saying that much of the reason we’re in this hyper polarized society now is due to echo chambers. If we refuse to engage with those we disagree with, then you’re falling into the exact same trap. The entire platform isn’t only Musk/MAGA supporters. It’s toxic and awful, but so is TikTok and Facebook yet millions still use them every day.
