“But I’m mocking all the Fascism on Twitter, or blocking it whenever I see it!”
Doesn’t matter. Elon Musk controls the algorithm. As we’ve already seen, he dictates what is seen and unseen.
Anyone who speaks out against his agenda can find themselves talking to a proverbial wall. Or at least brought out as a punching bag when the need arises.
And your blocks don’t matter if Elon really wants to force Twitter to see something.
Nobody likes to be told that they’re helping the bad guys. Especially when they’ve spent their entire lives self-identifying as liberals or progressives.
You’re on the side of human rights, not the Nazis, right?
Well, this is where actions speak louder than words.
It’s time to stop with the hot takes and dunks.
It’s time to log out of Twitter and never come back.
@atomicpoet If only it were that simple. You see, the people I engage with on Twitter are just as anti-fascist as I am.
Let's compare that with the people I engage with here, after five months of daily use.
Oh, nobody much engages with me here. So, I guess I don't have any data for comparison.
The folks who post here do seem very nice though - notwithstanding their near total lack of reciprocity whenever I try to pleasantly engage with them.
So, based on my experience, it looks like my options here are to be a broadcaster (like the folks who never engage with me), a fan (who praises broadcasters), a troll (who causes trouble to get engagement), or a lurker (who reads but is totally invisible.)
Ideally, I would become a fan, and heap adulation on all the broadcasters here. However, becoming a lurker is more my style. So please be advised that I typically read and enjoy your posts when they come my way.
