Why anyone still wants to participate in a Nazi-friendly playground is baffling to me. I get not deleting when he bought it. Maybe it won’t be that bad.

It is that bad and a hundred other kinds of bad on top of that. Look at the “investors” that helped him buy Twitter. Delete that shit. It’s spyware and propaganda.

Knowing what my feed is like it's hilariously absurd to think of twitter as a "nazi-friendly" playground. I mean, perhaps it is but it sure is friendly to a lot of other fringe groups as well that nazies would want nothing to do with.

"Nice people made the best Nazis. My mom grew up next to them. They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than “politics.” They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away. You know who weren’t nice people? Resisters."

Using twitter enables a Nazi leader. It's as simple as that.

You can rationalize why you continue to use it, but it won't change the facts. Honestly knowing you don't care about the harm you're doing tells me a lot about your character regardless of the friends you think you have.
