Meloncito se está quedando sin amiguitos.

Expect that list to grow further.

Maybe its just me, but having a bunch of punchable Nazi types running amok on your platform can't be the best business model.

None of them care except for the potential impact to their bottom line.

It is a good thing if Nazism is unprofitable: the original one made corporate partners a lot of money.

Also, even if those companies are run by sociopaths, their workers and lower management might revolt (like at Disney).

Those employees won’t “revolt”. In an economic system where everyone lives paycheck to paycheck, not nearly enough can afford to. It will calm down, And these corporations will continue to turn a blind eye to it in very short time because it is profitable. History shows.

there were always nazis on twitter but they used to stay in their own little nests. (i know; i'd invade their nests and report a dozen of them and their friends until they got banned.) now they're just talking hate speech with impunity all over the place bc they have no reason to be afraid

This is one of those things, like all those companies are also horrifically evil. Man my brain hurts these days

What if this was some perverse endgame for them all along? Truth social didn’t work….so the next best thing is take the digital town square that Twitter was and burn it down?

All of the people that were able to freely communicate in one place, scatter to all sorts of different platforms.

I think that's as reasonable an explanation as any.

I actually love this conspiracy theory. I think about it all the time. You go there when you try to find some -- any -- kind of perverse logic to explain the wild idiocy that has transpired. It does feel like social vandalism.

If not real, at least fodder for a thriller I should write….!

The rat bucket guy is holding firm.

Can we get a source on this?

shiningstar5022.bsky.social•464 days ago

I wonder if any of those companies will come here when the site goes public.

They will...
