Lol, nothing like waiting until the last possible moment to do the tiniest thing that won’t even accomplish anything at this point and then writing an article about it.
Agreed, but still do it
Yup. Here’s what I did:
- recommend others not vote for him in 2016
- didn’t vote for him in 2016
- avoided TruthSocial and other nonsense during his first term
- encouraged friends and family to not vote for him in 2020
- didn’t vote for him in 2020
- continued to avoid TruthSocial
- encouraged friends and family to not vote for him in 2024
- didn’t vote for him in 2024
See a pattern?
Better late than never I guess.
give up social media? nah that’s too hard for people lol.
Find a small community of like-minded friends to hang with online.
Hell, I only visit Reddit and Lemmy for the big news for a few minutes before heading off to check discord and matrix chats and everywhere else I go.
Branch out.
I just tried that…went searching for a room and amongst some software package rooms the two I stumbled upon that made me nope the fuck out are “COVID-19 truth” or similar, and some pro-trump mafia thing that had the n-word in its description. I tried to search for something even in the state of california and the closest I got was a gay hookup channel.
Thanks, I fucking hate the Internet now.
Maybe Facebook is the right place for some people.
Are you saying for me? Cuz facebook sucks ass too.
I remember the old Internet. Honestly, lemmy is the only thing I’ve encountered that feels even like the newer part of the old Internet.
That’s nice. But you should get a gun. Much more effective fighting method than deleting an app.
more lame extremist nonsense. you aren’t going to shoot anyone but some loads into a sock. pipe down
Lemme guess, this site still has a Xitter account
It does indeed.
At least they are still calling it Twitter
LMAO 😂
Way too late to “fight” them this way, it’s already served it’s purpose for them. Everyone needed to have done this like a year ago, dummies. But yeah, still delete it anyway.
Just remembered I still had one…
Anyway, Goodbye fuckers
…the only way this would have fought them was before the election, now they’re in the walls, that is palliative care.
That doesn’t mean leaving now isn’t better than staying.
Twitter (I will always call it that-fuck you melon head musk), is just fox news for the internet, a fascist hate app.
I’ve never used it because it’s worthless.
Don’t just delete the app, delete the whole account!
Don’t just “delete” Twitter as in deleting the app. Please also close your account.
Link your account to some bot posting gibberish every 10 minutes. For maximum damage.
Too late, Twitter served its purpose.
It’s time to delete X? 🧑🚀🔫🧑🚀 Always has been.
Agreed
l never used *Xitter anyway
*It’s pronounced as Shitter
At this point in time, anyone left on the platform formerly known as Twitter, is either a fascist, or at least think that fascism isn’t that big a deal.
this is an UNHINGED leap… so by that logic anyone living in america supports killing “foreign” civilians, bombing cities etc etc???
Seriously? It’s a social media site that openly support and spread right-wing misinformation, how is that comparable? People have no say in where they where born, and not all have the luxury of packing everything and move to another country, supporting a social media site is a choice.
I didn’t say people born here I said living. so all the people that have moved here willingly support bombing and invading since they CHOSE to live here got it
That’s just not true. My mate uses it to follow music bands they like. The problem we have with X is that everybody uses it so you have to use it you wanna stay in the loop. I don’t use I myself but i can understand why people still do.
What if a band had very vocal Nazi beliefs even lyrically, would you still like them because the music was good? Lol that is you.

I don’t see how that’s relevant to be honest. Twitter users didn’t choose for Musk to be in charge, and I’m sure a lot remaining users hate him.
Lol that is you
I said I don’t use twitter, what’s your point ?
You know what you have if you sit at a table with 10 Nazis? 11 Nazis.
There are a lot of people and organizations that are just slow to move and don’t really know where to go.
Bullshit. I have an account on X since it was Twitter. No post, no followed people, no follower. I don’t use my timeline. I just use it because many dealers use it as a channel to communicate with customers through DM. I’m a a fascist?
No but apparently you don’t think that it is that big of a deal?
Here we go…
Not really
That’s something I hate in place like these, lately: you’re either a good boy if you do what I think it’s right or you’re an evil fascist if you dare not to follow “the right path”. People seem to forget that there are a lot of shades of grey between black and white.
I know a lot of people still on twitter who ate firmly against fascism. I don’t know why they’re still on there though.
“I can fix him”
For a lot of marginalized people Twitter was a place to escape to and find like-minded people, I can see how it’s hard to make a new place feel as homely. Most of us here left another site because we didn’t agree with the leadership so it’s a very biased group, “just do the same thing we did”. Not everyone is in as privileged of a position though and it might be way harder for them to leave than you can imagine, especially if they’re addicted to it.
Because, as an example, some very important services communicate solely through Xitter. Emergency alerts, fire depart, governmental bodies, etc. Do I despise that? Yes. Do I ask them to move? Yes. Are they? Hell no.
Not while you are showing them you are still on there.
