   Why would journalists go to Fedi if all it meant was that they could only be heard by the servers the admins liked?
   Mass defederations and fostering a uptight atmosphere chased the opportunities away.
   FediBlock gave Musk all the power he needed.
   You can't just want decentralized social media to work, you have to operate in a way that can actually allow it to thrive.

     @sun @gabriel the way of scum is to only complain about institutional censorship because you lost control of it.
     
     the enlightened blob hated it from the start

     @gabriel
     >> Elon Musk essentially bought the election when he bought Twitter.

     this implies that people are too stupid (a standard socialist policy). i think people, maybe except for progressives, are fed up being called stupid.

     @bonifartius@qoto.org
     As far as I can tell Cenk is the only one who's calling out their bullshit.
     But they won't listen.

     @sun@shitposter.world @bonifartius@qoto.org Did owning Twitter really make a differenceI definitely think it moved the needle.
     Think of it as a super massive, super targeted ad spend. All it needed to do was make sure those likely to vote for Trump did.

     @gabriel @sun that's very different from buying the election. the idea of "buying the election" is directly admitting that the one saying it thinks the whole election is a scam anyway.
