All you people who were hating on racists on Twitter, you were hating on foreigners!! 🙃
Now MAGA comes out as DEI.
I hate all racists equally, regardless of their origin or appearance.
This whole thing brought up an interesting question. At what point should social media no longer be considered viable for human beings looking to at least commensally communicate with one another*? I personally feel we’ve already reached that point.
When the social communication platform distorts the truth.
So, like 15 years ago.
They should ban big tech from running social media platforms. Would be a huge plus for humanity.
i’ve said before that we’re faced with two options:
- either introduce a system that can tell you what account is run by an actual human being and which account is not. that could be done in an anonymity-preserving way with codes that you have to get in person (like, from a local library) and then use as a cryptographic signature for online accounts. it’s a bit techy, but doable.
- or we accept that machines casually pass the Turing Test and we’re probably talking to AIs online.
I can’t tell if this is sarcastic or this was posted as true.
It’s sarcasm. Twitter introduced a feature that allows you to check the country from which an account was registered. Hundreds of pro-MAGA accounts turned out to be from the countries listed in the OP.
Thats the 33% theyre always talking about! /s
But seriously, fuck these foreign agents. Such a good sign that your policy is so well received that you need to astroturf patriotism.
I used to be afraid of death.
These days, I feel like, I’d rather avoid it, but I’d be kind of fine it happening.
I have come to the realization that dying in my sleep of old age would be a waste. I believe that my life may have an unexpected twist ending, and I’m good with that.
I have certain Red Lines that will not be crossed. The most important are certain people whom I love, who belong to demographic groups that are particularly despised by MAGA. If anything were to happen to them, I would have nothing left to lose, and I would become a very dangerous individual.
I believe I am not alone in this feeling.
…i am maintaining civility until there’s none left to maintain, but when a good man goes to war, demons run…
