     @dangillmor The horrible thing is it drives other people to view the propaganda/disinformation from Musk (plus the misleading right wing ads) next to their posts.

     Yep, Dan, but this has not been enough for a long time.

     Reminder:

     *#X formerly #Twitter promotes #Fascism to destabilize Western democracies*

     it's the #algorithm, stupid!

     👉At this point, anyone still posting on #X ist complicit in the international rise of #fascism". Full stop. 👈
