one thing the MAGA movement has taught me is about the ((( ))) thing. apparently the white nationals put those around words to imply they are evil jewish people/things. so many secret bigot symbols, signs, etc. I would have happily never learned about otherwise.

Not gE'ing here, the amount of Nazi blue checks that have crawled out of the woodwork on Twitter since Elon took over is really something. It feels like every post there gets a response either from a porn bot or a nazi. Really makes it hard to follow conversations.

Three years ago, Twitter was an ideal social media platform. Elon has truly managed to wreck it by doing away with verification and allowing people to pay and make posts longer than the old character limit which was the thing that made twitter, twitter.

The porn bot and nazi bots that are all over is a disease only cured when Elon tires (if he does) of twitter (or x)

I would like to think that he might rethink what he's been doing with Babylon Bee based on how people are responding to this but probably not.

the alt-right, literal-nazi presence on twitter is metastasizing into the open under Elon's management.

Spot on. When a bunch of Nazis come out like "hey, this is not what I've come to expect from your publication, sir." You might wanna take a step back and reassess.

This whole story has led me down a very, very dark wormhole. This actual confederate sympathizing someone who makes me uncomfortable is illustrating your point perfectly:

Yes. There are still people living in the USA in 2024 who sincerely believe that the Confederate States of America were an ideal Christian society.

Yes, and that population consists of 5's after 5's of people.

In the Year 2024 there's people in our country who think that Earth is flat and millions upon millions who believe that Don Trump is a Russian plant.
