    I’m leaving Reddit. Tried to stay, but the atmosphere has just become too toxic. Follow me on Sh.itjust.works, if you like.

      This thread is kind of wild. Do all of y’all understand that it’s more the blatant endorsement and promotion of literal Nazis that is driving people off Twitter? It ain’t the corporatization. We might not like that but to pretend like it’s the same thing is fucking insane.

        We must have different experiences with facebook, because I see nazi rhetoric just as often there. It may not be as blatantly supported, but they certainly do nothing to keep it off of the platform.

          But is the nazi rhetoric on facebook coming from the owners?

          Right? People seems to forgot there’s mass exodus off facebook due to this exact issue and they still have this issue as of now, and also the protest against federating with Thread not too long ago.

          Zuckerberg zucks Trump’s choad as much as Elon behind the scenes. It’s kinda worse in a way.

        If you don’t like weird billionaires running the show and pushing political misinformation, don’t use Facebook.

        Threads was awash in bullshit “hacked at the tabulation level” election conspiracy theories following the election. It may not be MAGA, but it’s still making people stupid.

        Meta even has Project 2025 people on staff helping run Threads: https://www.intomore.com/the-internet/why-did-meta-just-hire-this-ron-desantis-approved-project-2025-alum/

        Stop using social media run by billionaires of you’re tired of getting fucked over by the ruling class.

    Not to say people shouldn’t leave Twitter, but like…this isn’t going to devastate him. He’s in the inner circle. Twitter could burn down and I doubt he would even notice.

        while he’s well and truly in the black, what he paid for was banning the Elonjet account. Everything else was an after thought.

          Pretty sure he paid to dismantle the public square, an organizing space for the left, a voice for millions, and all that sweet sweet information that will soon be used to hunt the enemy within.

    The “sudden” realisation of corporations and publications and celebrities that now xitter is bad, but a month ago it was fine, is one of the thinner veils I’ve seen for a while, and there are a lot of thin veils going around.

    The truth is, they only care once their income (or other personal interest) is potentially threatened, not a millisecond sooner, and definitely not about the bigotry that’s always been on there, but which has been completely undeniable for a good couple of years now, and which they were happy to turn a blind eye to this long.

    If you think these people are allies, you’re giving them waaaaaaay too much credit.

    “I tried hanging out with the Nazis, but they’re just too toxic”

    Honestly… 🙄🙄🙄
