We haven’t been ignoring him, obsessively covering his antics is exactly what elevated him and Trump to power, and its not going to fix anything anymore.
We are preaching to the choir when we complain about it here, and absolutely no one who needs to know is is going to see it because they’re in their own little filter bubble. But it is validating X as a public platform.
We have to deplatform these people and reach out to insulated bubbles.
Giving Musk lots of money is what elevated him to power. Covering his antics seems to hurt his brands and put pressure on various news media and governments to do something about his misinformation network.
The nazi salute alone and the resulting coverage has gotten several organisations to drop twitter
Can we please stop paying attention to this jerk?
I know reposting his Tweets makes news sites money, and gets upvotes, and whatever, but for heavens sake, don’t feed the trolls.
Musk is what over feeding a troll ultimately looks like.
He has the president’s ear and is already contributing to wrecking the country with fascist tactics while being open about being a nazi.
We can’t just ignore him anymore.
Not to mention that he has enough purchasing power and assets to destroy entire countries without getting involved in politics

Now is not the time to bury your head in the sand
No. This nazi needs to be publicly scrutinized now, more than ever.
If reporting critically on what the government and its members are up to is now “feeding the trolls”, then the phrase has lost all meaning.
It’s one thing to not engage with online bullies and leave them bored. It’s another thing entirely to start anew with first they came for the illegal immigrants, and I didn’t say anything, for I wasn’t an illegal immigrant.
Learn the lesson of history: this time around, first come for the Nazis.
Absolutely not. If you think he’s evil now, just wait until we stop paying attention to what he’s doing.
That ship has sailed.
