Threads is the same or worse. I just deleted my account.

Good luck.

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

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.

Follow me on Threads

so, nothing has changed.

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 28 minutes ago

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.

"Relationship ended with Elon Musk. Mark Zuckerberg is my best friend now."

You're mixing up your problem with Twitter and normal humans' problem with Twitter, get out of your echo chamber a bit, it might help.

You clearly don't know anything about Stephen King's politics and social positions.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 hours ago

Now it's too toxic? I love SK but come on. Supported that site for too long.

Boom! Mic drop! Stephen King EVISCERATES loser Elon in this EPIC post on X Formerly Known As Twitter!

[gif of that person clapping, you should know which one, everyone posted it endlessly every time Chrissy Teigen or those Krassenstein fucks threw some meaningless shade] hats off to this brave hashtag Resister for doing something that everyone should have fucking done three years ago at the very latest

I’m done, fuck everything, fuck everyone

Leaving a corpo-propaganda place, join another corpo-propaganda place. So close, King, so close.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 hour ago

Just like the chest piece, King just moved one square.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago

at least there is competition these days, unlike during twitters rise

He can fuck off for legitimizing and enriching Musk's Twitter for two years and then leaving after it's too late to do any good.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

At this rate, Twitter worth will be in minus soon.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Doesn't matter, he got what he paid for on November 5th

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 24 minutes ago

Ding Ding Ding.

I lost count of the amount of times I got downvoted to oblivion for saying "He isnt an idiot manchild, he is up to something. Yall are assuming he is playing checkers badly, he is playing chess and whupping your ass"

You dont get to be the richest man in the world by being an absolute fucking idiot.

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.. 🙄🙄🙄

He's going over to Threads, which is only a slight improvement.
