I went to check it out yesterday and I think I actually got dumber in 5 minutes I spent there.

So you'll be returning there tomorrow?

lol I actually never liked Twitter even when I was an early adopter but I'm only interested in it as a professional case study. I do like Mastodon a lot though and so I get the appeal of Twitter done right!

Find any good witch hunts? We cancelling Markiplier because he totally blinked a desire to oppress women and minorities in morse code? That sounds like Twitter

Wrong year for that propaganda

Elon’s Twitter has no interest in canceling anyone for the “oppression of women”, whether it’s true or not

I think they were going for a "it's always been trash" angle

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Indeed (Although there are still plenty of internet witch hunts...)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Not really propaganda when it's STILL a common problem for the internet to go on witch hunts against people for "Grooming" and other such thigns based on the flimsiest of evidence, sometimes continuing to do so even after the person was proven innocent.
