I started Twitter when President Obama ran the first time.
But regardless of followers number....I can not connect myself with Musk.
It took me years to aquire my friendly group of followers and it will not ever happen again. But that's okay. Those were the days...
I dumped Twitter when they threatened to charge ppl in other countries to use the site. Couple of yrs ago now, I guess. Just now hoped on BlueSky yesterday; needed a seriously long break from the chaos.
Everything the "Musk"family presents/sells or give service for, should be 100% BOYCOTTED! Why?
Because The Musk family (Elon incl.!) got their "generational" Wealth thru SLAVERY. And ever since this Family buys companies/shares or stocks. And we now pay FEES to this FAMILY!
Stop using/buying it!
I hope all these magats tear each other apart - verbally or physically - I'm not particular. Actually, I lean toward the physical. Saves me work later on.
I'll miss you over there because I'm staying until those people find out how badly they were lied to and duped into voting for Trump. They're going to find out who Trump really is which we hear in New York. Have known for a long time and watching them meltdown will be great fun.
I don't think these people will ever find out how stupid they have been. Because they are too stupid and not the kind that admits to errors. You will be waiting in vain
The problem is that he provides & condones what they want: racism, misogyny and bigotry. They’ll cheer his mass deportation & abortion bans. Four years from now they’ll continue to blame the price of eggs on Biden. They’ll never see the forest for the trees, sadly.
They've been told over and over for the last 4 years that the election was stolen and that Trump fulfilled every one of his promises and there was never bad times. They prefer to believe that then look at reality.
They want what he’s peddling: racism, bigotry, misogyny. Throw fascism into the mix too. Trump’s their dream come true. They’ll say it’s “the economy”, but that’s just cover for the above. They’re chomping at the bit for mass deportation, a nat’l abortion ban & overturning the marriage equality act.
I disabled my account the first day he walked in with the kitchen sink. It took awhile, but now that everyone has moved here Bluesky is where you want to be.
It's wrong that 'The President" should have enough authority and global jurisdiction to do what was done in Gaza, the Vietnam syndrome. The money that has been wasted on "presidential war" is unfathomable. The presidency, can we survive it? Abolish the presidency, and create an Executive Council.
I'm happy for you. Go ahead and keep that name though people are finding out the hard way that if you delete your account someone will impersonate you and say really dumb crap. I want to make sure I say my own dumb crap.
Well done. Bluesky is like a breath of fresh air. Twitter is a toxic cesspool of hate, bigotry, and social division. Let them all stew in their toxic juices. Can't wait for the rest of those like you to dump Twitter and become Bluesky devotees
I can’t wait for it to become the rag propaganda network the level of FOX NEWS, the Washington Post and Alex Jones…oh wait 🤷♀️I don’t have to it’s already there😜🤨!!
The Red States prefer their hate and stupidity. They’ve steeped in it for decades and they pass it on to their progeny. They share a superiority complex. I know this because I married into a large family of them. My husband and some younger relatives have gotten out but are now exiled.
Other influential, pro-democracy accounts over there should migrate to Bluesky like you did. Putting content there just supports the site's owner and his political interests/purchases.
Nice to see you've exited the asylum and joined us here in the recovery ward. The Toxic Radiation over on the other site causes severe headaches and mood swings.
Good for you @i-am-marcus-ellis.bsky.social I’m glad you did what is best for you. We all need to protect our own JOY. see you on the battlefield one day.
It felt like a weight lifted off me when I finally quit on Nov 6th. I tried to quit several times before that and was too addicted but finally I was able to cold turkey it and I’ve had no desire to go back. Elon destroyed a once great hangout. Imagine the damage he will do to our country/govt now.
Musk is removing verified badges from companies that speak out about unfair laws coming from President Musk and his deranged co- President.
Big baby!!!
Remember last year when he sat on some stage and said “FUCK YOU” to all the advertisers that had taken away their advertising from his company? He sounded like a tough guy then. Now he’s just sounding like someone loosing all his best marbles and getting REALLY mad about it 🤭😜😝!!
I think he is drugged up and spends his time posting on X and dreaming up how he can take a scalpel to the needy.
Cut! Cut! Cut!
"They ate yesterday. Why do they want to eat again today?"
Trust me Marc... your blood pressure will go back to normal and you won't wake up every day with headaches and concerned that we are drowning in a sewer.
I dropped Twitter and had a day or two of doubts, but never looked back and now, I don't miss it.
I did, too. I know this will seem like "I told you so" but how might things have been different if people had stopped using X and Facebook when we first knew they were manipulating social media.
Good for you! I have no idea why people keep enabling Elon’s right-wing rag catastrophe. They’re going to have to reconcile that from within one day & you won’t have to do that work. Or maybe they won’t, because they’re already dead inside. 🤷🏻♀️
I not only stopped posting (long ago), I completely closed my xTwitter account. It must be harder when you’re followed by thousands. Glad I found a happier place.

I killed my account the weekend after the election when this place started blowing up.
I haven't missed it for even a second.
I thought I might miss it now and again but NOPE.
Not.For.A.Second
I wish I could--I work in the schools and sadly twitter is where we fight against the state takeover we are sadly in. Hopefully one day soon. Again thank you for all you do!
Bravo!!! 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽
I will always support you on #DemocracyDocket ! Thank you and your amazing team for all you do to help save our Democracy! 💙🦋

I know its hard for big accounts to truly deactivate bc you don't want your name being misused and to lose the followers
But baby steps....you got this
I left as soon as Elonia bought it. I hated navigating it and it only got worse. Was never on it as X but loved referring to Xwitter pronounced Shitter.
I left a couple of month ago and it's the best move ever! Glad you are here now too Marc. your mental health will than you for it. Give Democracy Dog a hug from me please. He's a beautiful boy!

hard pressed to recall a valued, global resource that suffered a greater demise from greatness to mediocrity. damn shame, but pleased with BSky.

NEVER FORGET ... Jan 6, and this ... https://america2.news/project-russia-the-kremlins-playbook-for-undermining-democracies/
A distinction without much of a difference.
We have to deactivate.
Otherwise it looks like he's retained his site.
Prevents others from future impersonation.
HULLOOOOOOO Marc!
soooo good to see ya!
I never felt so relieved as when I deactivated my account the Sunday after the election.
