@dangillmor We don't have to stop using Twitter just because Elon is a piece of shit. It's an act of protest to continue to use Twitter in spite of Elon's hatred and contempt. We have to let Elon know that we're not going anywhere and he has to deal with our opposing voices that'll cry bullshit whenever he does something foul. And we will post about it on his platform for the whole world to see. If we all just leave then Elon wins.
@Jamesivan96 Fascinating. I love the idea of posting shit he doesn't like on his own platform... in a general sense, Amnesty International agrees with you--the idea that boycotts aren't helpful and that change is easier to affect from the inside.
However, I have to question. Does Elon win if we all leave? No, he loses eyeballs. His assery has driven competitors to be more successful. If we want Federated social media why bother to continue making an unfederated space relevant? Move on!
