@sue looking at anything on Twitter is a mistake.

@fuzzychef @sue "Looking at anything on #Twitter is a mistake."

O/T: I'd been leaving my account dormant, but what you said is why I finally reposted my "most important" #OldTwitterPosts here, before pulling the plug & leaving only a redirect.

(Yes, I did grab my archive first.)

The sociopathic billionaire running the fowl site's free-speech-for-me-but-not-for-thee shitshow shouldn't profit from further engagement with the content I shared *for free*.

@grinningcat @fuzzychef @sue

I’ve been digging around Twitter this evening, and I’ve seen a video of a triple execution style murder, no flags on the video, up for weeks, with people praising Musk lest it be excluded from the platform (and it’s all the democrats fault, and gun control doesn’t work).

And I saw a tweet about water, flagged as sensitive.

I’ll never forget that video, I certainly didn’t need to see it, I had to find a relevant article to get some closure.

Is this the free speech that Musk wants for his BS platform? I don’t have an account; anyone, any kid, any victim, could be exposed to that video and Jesus Christ knows whatever else he’s allowing on there.

Could you imagine your content inadvertently served up next to something like that?

@sue @fuzzychef I am only assume the boot must have a delicious flavor. Or perhaps it feels therapeutic on the neck.....

@NerdShinobi @sue @fuzzychef They love the boot and they love watching it stomp.

@NerdShinobi @sue @fuzzychef They don't mind the boot, because they know it's going to hurt the people they hate more than it hurts them.

The cruelty is the point.

@sue @fuzzychef That’s because Twitter’s algorithms serve you stuff that makes you angry on purpose. To get you “engaged”. I am so happy I left that hate site behind. Sleeping better, less anger in me.

@Mastokarl @sue @fuzzychef I also looked at this on Twitter after a couple of months off and it immediately enraged me. So many bootlickers

@fuzzychef Well they are "right", in that narrow sense "we only care about money".(*)

But, "money", "economy", "companies", etc. those are supposed to be tools. In democratic country, tools for better life of whole society.

So, we need to fix that "narrow mindedness".

One way would be to remember who those employers are and then either do not work for them or work, but as a member of union. Etc. 1/2

@fuzzychef 2/2 And reg. "we only care about money": Publicly traded companies are also (among other things) used by us (workers/citizens) to save some money for retirement. E.g. they have to make money. But:

1) are they?

2) also for us?

3) are we OK with *how* they are making that money?

4) …

@sue @fuzzychef and that's why I'm no longer on Twitter.

@sue @fuzzychef
Many people on Twitter actually identify themselves with this very strongly and would like everyone to have has little as possible so maybe they can be like the old man and get some scraps from him...
