"By banning some of us, Musk is sending a message to everyone else: Comply with the dictator or lose access. Twitter has become a virtual simulation of authoritarian rule."

"But Musk didn’t build Twitter. We, collectively, turned the bird app into a consequential power. If it remains under the control of a man who sees journalists as enemies, we have a moral responsibility to fly the coop."

Yup. Deleted my account the day he reinstated Trump. Saw what the future was then.

Apropos this thread, so you saw that would stop suspending people casually, and you just weren't cool with that.

I'm just laughing that in a thread worrying about people being suspended, you're talking about quitting because that wasn't being done as much as you'd like.

@volkris If you're a fan of Trump and fascists you should just stay on Twitter. Sad to see the garbage factor starting to appear here on Mastodon.

@echuta

Fortunately I'm not a fan of Trump and fascists, and that's to the point where I'm not even leaning hard enough in that direction to tell people what platforms they should be on.

Seems rather fascist to me to tell somebody where they should and shouldn't be!
