every day it gets more incredible to me that people are so fucking addicted to fake validation and fake likes from fake friends that they still use fucking twitter
Yeah! I like my fake validation and fake likes from anonymous friends over here on lemmy. Fake friends are overrated.
the secret is i don't think anyone on lemmy is my friend. i find everyone here frustrating and annoying! the system works!
Damn,... Ruffalo looks young in this picture... then I realize, he was and we all got fucking old. This was 13 years ago!!!!!
...hey. Stop that.
Respect the rules! We all pretend 2005 was 4 years ago and 2014 was last year.
Bullshit! 1995 was 4 years ago. 2004 was last year.
There's a pretty big difference between drinking mild poisons at a Nazi bar and a local bar. Zoomed out, sure, drinking alcohol at all can be considered pretty dubious, but the difference between the two scenarios remains.
edit: replace what autocorrect put as "consistent" to "considered"
A guy from South Africa made his app anti-black? Shocking.
The white guy who is only rich because of black oppression in South Africa, in fact.
IDK How to tell you this, but fascist racists own everything and are planning to kill a whole bunch of people soon. I really think people are under estimating the severity of the vision these people have for the world.
Can you quantify soon here? I agree with you that they don't have good intentions, but I think that framing it as like, a planned genocide is not accurate. More realistically what can happen is more systemic injustices and consolidations of power to prevent anyone from resisting.
To start with, their plan for mass deportation probably already counts as a displacement genocide. There will be thousands of deaths from it leaving aside everything else wrong with it.
There are also approximately 3 million trans people in the US. Every single one of them is in danger as the fascists' chosen scapegoat.
People, please stop using twitter. Stop giving your attention and money to terrible people. Some people, like that white lady, are weak-minded and they will never learn.
She’s a straight up Nazi
I have a feeling she takes black cock on the down low and doesn’t tell anyone
... isn't that the wrong arm?
The guy on the right is mirrored, judging by the text on his shirt. I'm guessing she is, too.
Bro really wants to steal Truth Social's userbase for more money. He found out that the left is a lot harder to scam.
Nazis are sub human and shouldnt have rights
The only good nazi is a dead nazi
Or maybe a grammar nazi... But I'm not sure they count
The weirdest thing here to me is that people call twitter an app. Not a site/community/whatever.
Zoomers and later generations mostly interact with Internet services through apps.
The first word they did this with was cis. This will keep happening and the attacks will get worse until people act. Leave Twitter
I don’t think I’ve seen the old hard-R written out in quite some time. Let nobody say Musk and his indentured servant team have never accomplished anything. They just accomplish the bad things.
Why do they call everything an "app"?
The app is just the interface, the interface did nothing wrong, the entire platform is cooked.
Anti-black? Is that a substitute for “racist” to avoid censorship?
To be fair, it’s far more precise, being a subset of racism, especially given the context of some racist slurs being filtered while others aren’t, depending on the targeted race.
In today’s fucked up world, it wouldn’t surprise me if anti-white and anti-black slurs were filtered but anti-hispanic and anti-asian slurs weren’t, for instance, maybe to drive nationalism regardless of race. I appreciate the additional clarity.
Don’t use state media.
Exactly the opposite lesson to take. We need public social media, not corporate social media. We need rights and guarantees, not profit taking and psyops.
Wish people would just stop using Twitter.
Shit like this makes me wonder what it would actually take to convince people to stop
wow, so surprised. And after it being a complete tool for getting Trump elected too. Flabbergasted, I say.
It's no secret that Apartheid Leon is trying to make everything back to the way it was in South Africa when he was a kid.
I'm sure he already has a very nostalgic flag picked out when the name changes to The United States of X.
I treat people who have twitter accounts the same as I would someone who chain smokes in public areas: you're part of the mesh that prevents the substrate for nice things to exist.
Hopefully it's as much of collective social stigma as smoking is soon.
jesus christ.
