    If people didn’t leave Twitter when it became an unholy cestpool of alt-right propaganda, they have chosen to stay there because their audience is the alt-right.

      Unfortunately this isn’t true. My GenZ niece is trans. Her and her friends believe they have to stay on there for “Reach” and for each other. They are now nearly 4 years into being brainwashed. She explained to me last year how activism was just a meme. (This was before the recent protests)

      This platform has trans people believing that pronouns are why things broke down. This is not me using hyperbole, which I often do. Just is.

        We were just being polite and giving some of them the benefit of the doubt. Now, if you’re conservative you’re a fucking Nazi no mincing of words. Especially the neo-liberals who talk “oh this is awful someone should do something” then vote for his nominees.
