   "But if the Torment Nexus shuts down, what will happen to my community? We use this platform for organizing!"

   Yeah I dunno, this is only the twentieth or thirtieth time this kind of shit has happened in recent years, maybe quit building your community in the middle of a Torment Nexus?

     Real tired of being told that it's not OK to for me to hate some part of the surveillance capitalism apparatus because this or that group has figured out a way to bend it into being useful for something. Anything positive you manage to wring out of those platforms in an unintended side-effect, unrelated to their true purpose. If the owners could figure out how to optimize that sort of thing away in favor of displaying more ads and collecting more data, they would.
