What are these fucking people doing on Twitter anyway? Why they hanging out with the Nazis? You're still on Twitter this point I have some healthy suspicions about your character.
Not all parts of twitter is chick full of Nazis. The parts I follow probably won't ever move over to Mastodon, so I'm stuck with Twitter. The good thing is that part barely has any Nazis.
Good job on brushing everyone on Twitter with the same broad stroke, though. Really shows how progressive you can be.
It's a website that purposely and specifically endorses Nazis. Yes you are tainted by association. Stop using that or I'll assume you're okay with them. That's what I think of anyone who hangs out with Nazis. Why you doing that? Why you hanging out with Nazis? What do you like about Nazis? If you find these questions uncomfortable you should stop hanging out with Nazis.
By the way do you know my favorite part of my progressivism is, dead Nazis. Nothing makes me happier than the idea of a Nazi rotting in a field somewhere.

And this is a site run by developers that purposely and specifically endorses Tankies, yet it's still stupid to call everyone on this site a Tankie.
That's what I think of anyone who hangs out with Nazis. Why you doing that? Why you hanging out with Nazis?
Because we don't, we kick them out of the circle, that's why there's few of them amongst those I follow. The fact that you can't comprehend such a simple concept is the problem.

The software is partially written by Tankies, but most instances aren’t run by Tankies. Since it is free & open source software under the AGPLv3, anyone can freely use it. Lemmy also uses ActivityPub, an open standard, and is fully compatible with other Fediverse software like Kbin/Mbin and Piefed. Using lemmy.ml or other instances means that you’re associated with Tankies, but using Lemmy the FOSS software doesn’t. Since Twitter is proprietary, the only option is using twitter.com which is run by a Nazi and actively supports Nazis.
They are on Twitter because nothing has displaced Twitter for what it is. That's tricky because people follow the content, so the content generators, the heavy hitters, have to choose en masse to go somewhere else.
I think that's what that Dulles brother said about why he kept doing business with the Nazis even into the 1940s. Even when the rest of the heads of his business said you should stop doing this we don't need to be invested with the Nazis they just invaded Poland he said no money still there I want to hang out with Nazis.
Cuz here's the thing if everyone who wasn't one left that site it wouldn't be a problem anymore, a different site would be used.
Unfortunately Twitter is the absolute best source for the most up to date breaking sports news and nothing that I'm aware of comes close.
I'm on Twitter because all the OSINT people who track the invasion/war in Ukraine basically only use Twitter. I like following OSINT info to get a real perspective on what's going on.
Maybe it would behoove you to remind those people that they're on a website run by someone who has a material and vested interest in the destruction of Ukraine. That they should change to another website.
I'd like in on that perspective but I'm not going to twitter for anyone. Shit is toxic and stupid.
On Ukraine, got any non twitter suggestions for perspective? Also, not familiar with OSINT. Care to enlighten me? Open source intel tools?

- Suchomimus does a good job covering OSINT in the Russo-Ukraine War; attacks, geolocation, battle damage assessment, etc.
- Oryx catalogues every pictured Russian loss. They are up to 3,200 tanks, 4,300 IFVs Russian loses already. Every single one has a picture. Click on a few, scroll and scroll and scroll.
- Right here on Lemmy, the !ukraine@sopuli.xyz and !combatvideos@sh.itjust.works communities get quite a bit of Russo-Ukraine war coverage.
not familiar with OSINT
Exactly what you said! Open Source INTelegence. Basically people taking publicly available data and using it to confirm attacks. Things like NASA FIRMS data can be used to verify where fires are; and when combined with videos of a fire in the direction of an airfield, for example, can be used to confirm that yes, on this specific date, these parts of an airfield are on fire.
People go where they think the people are. X is still the closest thing to Twitter since Elon came along. I deleted my account, but feel like I’m in the minority.
If they choose to support Twitter, they must expect to take the consequences. It's a known cess pit. Being active on a centralised network does harm. You can't grizzle after drawing innocent people in to such a bad place.
How much can this be abused before it is overdue to treat X as a common carrier?
why is this being downvoted?
Because people know who you are.
How much can you bullshit before you answer anyone's questions?
You had one downvote, presumably from the person who replied to you twice.
I'm childish and downvote anyone who refers to twitter as "x". It's like you're on your knees licking Elons bum, right after he told you to call it x, you did what you were told lol.
Also I never got on the twitter bandwagon as it just didn't appeal to me. My social media addiction was reddit.
Twitter sucks. X is a letter. Or a variable in algebra.
Oh dear. If I were I wouldn’t be advocating for the government to effectively seize Twitter. I hated the nepo apartheid baby before it was cool.
Oh I'll give you that, I'd love the gov to seize it and make it a public utility. First order of business is put the name back to twitter because duh. And bring back the little blue bird cuz it reminds me of birdie sanders.
Ain't gonna happen though lol.
Oh noooo....
Stop using fucking Twitter
Can't believe Biden let the world know his decision first on Twitter, even before the White house Press office.
Hm I deleted my twitter account last year. Maybe I'll make a new one just to follow her
