    Fucking preformative liberals, instead of attacking the systems of exploitation that harm the community they virtue signal for they focus on the temporarily manufactured villains.

      If you can’t have everything, you’d prefer nothing? Isn’t that the same logic that got us a second trump term?

        What got us a second Trump term was the Dems acting like they are owed votes, instead of acting like they need to earn votes.

        No the logic that got us a second trump term is “we can move as far to the right as we want, and as long as we’re second worst, people will have no choice but to vote for us.”

      So… what?

      In your ideal world nazi sites wouldn’t be blocked?

      What are you even arguing here?

      There is no world in which refusing to use a site run by a nazi is a bad thing.

        I’m arguing liberals have the memory of a goldfish and will forget it the next time something else comes up. This is #resist 2.0, purely performative.

          Got it, there’s no point in ever fighting them since we might not fight them at some unspecified point in the future, we should just all welcome and embrace Nazis. Thanks for letting us know how to move forward.

            They are not fighting anything, if they were they would have fought it from the beginning instead of accepting small doses of fascism.

                We are currently living in Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World where even the mention of breaking free from the chains is met with resistance. Liberals would rather dose their Soma than allow meaningful change to happen.

    Yeah that’ll show him. I’m sure he’s gonna lose a ton of sleep over the miniscule amount of traffic that’s going to drop for his shitty website that he bought and drove into the ground.

    Wait actually he cares way too much about how people view him so it might actually bother him a ton. It’s hard to say really.

    Either way stop using Twitter and reddit. Both terrible.

        Or, apparently, introspectiveness…

        Liberals are just sheep. They believe whatever the media tells them. They think they don’t need to believe anything other than the media tells them. One of the things the media tells them is they are superior to others, and it gets into their heads.

        Kettle meet pot?

          Uhhhhhhhhh, gotta say, I’ve never once heard NPR tell me that we’re special or privilaged, or above the law. Or even should be.

          Meanwhile our current president is a 34x convicted criminal and sexual predator.

          …although to be fair, the democrats also had a sexual predator in the 60s (twice), and the 90s.

          But I can’t recall any democrat running on the platform of “we’re better than them”.

      Twitter probably benefits from people being redirected to their site from repostings with how it has become the go to source for news like sports, so it might. Won’t hurt Elon financially but less people being exposed to the content there that Elon wants to push that don’t actively use Twitter is a good thing even if it is only a few.

      Even small moves is a good thing with how over the years sports and game submissions have become increasingly more Twitter submissions.

      The less its posts are shared, the less its relevance is to the world. I can’t see that as a bad thing. It always baffled me how outsize Twitter’s influence was on world events/news while having 1/5th the active userbase of Facebook.

      So, your stratagy is nukes or go home? You just want one decisive move to win, otherwise why bother?

      When a baby is born it doesn’t just run out of the womb and poop in a toilet. First it slides out. Many months later it starts crawling. Then slowly walking. Then walking. Then running. Then potty training. THEN it can run to a toilet to poop.

      But by your logic, oh well, can’t run to a toilet on day 1. Best just not to be born.
