Need to talk about that ride.
@taylorlorenz To get to reconnect with the people who made The Expanse, I have to get bombarded with Nazi horseshit and techbro philosophy? Love you Expanse ppl, but there's a line.

@jprestonian @taylorlorenz I don’t understand what this has to do with The Expanse. Are the writers of the book series or the creators behind the TV series problematic now?

@fabricatus @jprestonian @taylorlorenz I think think rather that Miller is bemoaning the fact that they can't just connect with people they like, such as the cast and crew of The Expanse, without also having Nazi propaganda firehosed into their eyes. It's a bit like having a bunch of pen friends but the only way you can receive mail is if it's bundled with a subscription to Stormfront.

@jprestonian @taylorlorenz @paulbottomley42 oh I get it now. I’m using a plug in called blue blocker which blocks anyone with a blue tick (bar a few exceptions) which has made my feed much more pleasant any time I go there. I don’t use Twitter much anyway now as most of my friends have evaporated from there now anyway. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/blue-blocker/

@fabricatus @taylorlorenz @paulbottomley42 I use a method called "don't click on links to Twitter." Works a treat!

@taylorlorenz That's unbelievable. Who are the people defending the Nazis? I am German, and I am grateful that my country was liberated by the Allies from the horrors of Nazism.

The Nazis turned to the US, especially the "South" for ideas on how to implement racial discrimination laws. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/11/what-america-taught-the-nazis/540630/ The neo-Nazi and neo-Confederate groups are still close allies in trying to enforce white supremacy.

@robin but you also know, that in the so called "Sonntagsfrage" opinion poll about 20% would electing a nazi-party?

@Lonewolf85 @taylorlorenz I believe we are onto the blasting phase and I heard someone is getting The Boring Company involved.

@taylorlorenz I haven't had an account there for years but, damn am I glad I don't now.

@taylorlorenz The folks at @Bellingcat created the eyes on russia map to verify social media posts of damage in Ukraine. But with Melon Husk's antics, clicking in dots on map that lead to a wtitter post no longer works. (but they do provide URL so you can access the tweet from your own account on Melon's web sit).

@taylorlorenz it’s so satisfying to see 44 billion dollars go up in smoke. Even more satisfying to see him be exposed as a clueless hack.

@taylorlorenz Huh, at this rate I wouldn't be surprised if Elrond Mumps changes his title from Chairman to Obergruppenführer.

@taylorlorenz It's a poll based on a small demograph. From the 'unvacc' tag,I deduce that It's an intellectually challenged demograph.

@rub1sc0 @taylorlorenz IC or they did it on purpose to be 'funny'. Which is why we perhaps shouldn't fight to give them a voice in regular society
Nona Rose
@rub1sc0 @taylorlorenz while the second poll is a small demographic, the first one is not. 30k people happily saying that any religious/cultural/ethnic group is a problem IS the problem.

@rub1sc0 @taylorlorenz even if true, that post should be subject to content moderation based on reasonable community guidelines. however, in Germany the second post is illegal (and the first one probably as well).

@taylorlorenz threads maybe slightly better, but their moderation is lacking, it’s good enough for majority of the population I guess, but minorities still face harassment that goes unchecked https://www.threads.net/t/CudjMQ_NBZv/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

@taylorlorenz What is wrong with these peple? Why can't they live and let live. It's infuriating. Ugh.

@taylorlorenz Ew. Explains why my mate said he got an image of a swastika recently “suggested for [him]” 😣

@taylorlorenz @Ursalzona I remember getting into a nasty argument with a relative about how antivax propaganda was bound to push for extreme-right views. Said person found the thought offensive. Guess this “@Unvaccina…” user would agree.

@taylorlorenz Damn, that's nuts. I had seen the first one and that was bad enough, but the second... When I was a young kids were taught from the cradle that the Nazis were evil. WTF is happening?

@taylorlorenz Fuck twitter. Who are the shit heads buying Tesla EVs? Another record month of sales, another record monthly profit. Twitter is not relevant. It's not real. Tesla buyers are making that prick millions of $ per hour. Note the type that drives a Tesla. They are pricks. They park on the wrong side of the road. they run crossings. They are fucking you over.. Ridicule them. Key their car.. Hide your face. Slash their tyres. Build a Tesla bonfire. Make them pay for making him richer.

@taylorlorenz I can't decide for them however I feel pity for anyone in any minority supporting that rich spoiled fascist. Lack of education&reading and awareness.

@taylorlorenz It's a good thing I left Twitter when I saw some grossly antisemitic content

@taylorlorenz I had to read that twice. I expected a difficult distribution, but not that crazy detached from reality. |
