I'm sure like many, my 'X' feed has felt injected with right wing posts since Elon took over. Just maybe two or three days ago, I noticed a new trend of posts it was serving to me. This whole weird new trough of posts has been super alpha male vibes and 'hot' women shaming men for playing video games. I legit wonder if this story has anything to do with why that's being targeted at me, a very casual gamer, now.
Just want to remind everyone, deleting your account and leaving the platform is a way to harm the platform that has turned into an enabler of bigoted hatred. And in doing so, stop being an enabler of the known enabler.
Not at all, I've been feeling that it's time to move on for a while now. It's hard to leave because I do care about staying active and up-to-date on political discourse, but this truly doesn't feel like that's what it is any more. It's yelling into a void. I fear for the sake of many less in tune with what political discourse should be that this is the only diet they're being fed anymore. It's a scary path we're headed down. All the love to you as well, stay groovy 🤙
Lol, never said I was important. It can be a great source of information and news and I enjoy staying up-to-date on stories big and small. That's the hard part to walk away from. Take 'er down a notch.
Yeah if we just wait for the fascists to play nice that will surely work! Fuck half measure coward bullshit. That's for cowards. Are you or OP a coward? Does having a backbone take a backseat to this imaginary internet horseshit?
Who says anything about waiting for fascists to play nice? Fascists don't play nice. This is about convincing people that are not fascists that Twitter has become a Nazi bar and they should leave it.
I hate the liberal focus on civility over action just as much as the next leftist, but just as civility in the face of fascism does not help, blind anger at everyone is also pointless. Insulting people who want to leave but feel locked in will not make them leave. How about we instead point out what a fascist hellhole it has become, and offer alternatives
