It's called thinking rationally and factually. If you see that as "negative thinking," you're the problem, not me. We need empathy-based rationality. Not mindless positive spin, on everything. Thinking critically is not a negative trait, at all. It is a profoundly good thing.
I've already had 2 on here. One today tried to forat call be less intelligent and that I must have weak ponies using the caps locks. I mean really. That's what your starting with. It's amazing the low brow idiocracy. We're we really engaging. Are we really free of the mediocrity. Sigh. π€β€οΈπ³οΈβππ³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈβπ
There are MAGAs infiltrating here. Just use the block feature without engaging. Trolls thrive on causing conflict and pain. If we ignore them, we don't have to care what happens to them.
The 10 pro- trump accounts I blocked today could be calling me names, but I don't have to know or care.
Practice this. Now I'm also preaching to myself because I'm a "MEAN GIRI". I tell them to please stop following me to the other playgrounds and stalking me like a maga trump supporter sex offender. ππ€ͺ. Then block them. It is both accurate and it's final and a brush off
MAGA trolls announcing themselves in the comments on this post is handy for blocking before having to deal with them. They've learned not to put MAGA in their bios, but if it's not a blank profile their posts tend to be blatant.
One can only hope, right? I actually thought about signing up on Bluesky because of Paul Krugman's column in the NYT today where he is very clear about Musk is doing and has done to Twitter, and how this is a very good alternative. I'm hoping so.
Mr. Kinzinger, just as Bluesky is eating twitter's lunch, you can help a New Republican Party rise from the ashes like the Phoenix. If you can get people organized, you can pull Republicans from the Senate and House towards a more honorable pursuit of ideas and service to Americans. Imagine the /1
Kinzinger is clearly the best option for taking over the Republican Party. I think we should bring him closer to Progressive leadership to get him ready for his ascension.
Yes. And IβM HERE FOR IT! Musk is data harvesting to develop his AI and nobody seems to realize theyβre literally his slaves just making him richer.
I am about to get blocked by many of my FB friends because I am posting articles written by a communist leftist Democrat. I have been posting your articles and statements.
I really want to know if I post that posting the 10 commandments in schools would do any good because obviously it didn't make a damn bit of difference in most Evangelical Churches.

I had my doubts at first but there are no Modi and Putin bots spreading daily hate against my community, Blue Sky has brought these kinds of apps back to its intended focus: Activism
MAGAts will be following decent people to bluesky - they need decent people to hate on. It's the only thing that keeps them from seeing what miserable failures they all are as people
The blue bird is looking a bit peckish these days! π¦ Blueskyβs soaring to new heights, gobbling up users faster than you can say βretweet.β More skydivers flying the coop every day. Not just eating Twitterβs lunch β itβs raiding the whole pantry! π #TwitterWho
You know what is REALLY funny? the MAGAs are so big mad about this they are joining Bluesky to see what trouble they can cause here......and in SO DOING.....are EXITING X.....like a self inflicted wound.....funny.
You're welcome! I subscribe to some others and there is overlap but I noticed there are more and more showing up down thread and replying to smaller account so this is my little way of fighting back the πͺ³πͺ³
Careful with blocklists, some bad actors are spreading false ones to try to pollute the pool and later adding actual progressives. I've collected ones I think are good here, but please quote retweet if you find false flags.
I kept my account but I have ceased engagement... just monitoring the opposition... it's worse now than ever... every time I think they couldn't get any worse... they do.π«€
I read Elon is re-posting leftist comments, not saying anything but leaving smart ass emoji faces. I guess it's cos his own face seems to not move much.
I deleted Twitter Wednesday after the election. The next 4 years are going to be stressful enough I didnβt need the constant MAGAt craziness adding to the stress
I work as a community director and I work hard to make sure the space online I am responsible for is free of hate and nonsense posting so I see it all day every day. I have a hard time tolerating it on other platforms because I know it doesn't have to be that way. It isn't rocket science it's doable
I'll just be over here getting my popcorn ready to watch the fireworks. It will happen as soon as anyone starts telling Donnie what to do. He doesn't like that.
I just heard trump say THERE CALLED BREAST, ERON... THERE CALLED BREAST...!!! AND EVERY MAGA MAN HAS THEN. OH TRUMP. I CAN SEE YOUR DIRTY PILLAZ. COME AN AND WE'LL BURN THE DRESS TOGETHER AND WE'LL PRAY. IT'S NOT PAINT ERON. IT'S MAKE UP. π
Oh I have every line memoried. π€£. I COULD SMELL THE CHEAP ROT GUT WHISKEY ON HIS BREATH AS HE LOOKED DOWN AT ME LIKE THAT. OH GOD!!! AND TOOK ME!!! AND I LIKED IT!!! OH GOD I LIKED IT!!!! πππ€£. My therapist needs therapy after a session with me. π€ͺ

The rest of the article goes not to say:
causing X to drop out of all Brand Finance rankings for the year. Its brand strength index (BSI) score has also declined considerably by 12.7 points to 56.9/100, signalling a major reputational crisis that the brand is struggling to overcome.
Given what his true intentions for twitter were, Muskrat would have paid even more for the site - much, much more.Money's sole purpose for Sissy SpaceX is to feed his ego and his insatiable lust for more money. Since it's proven that everything trump touches dies, we can only hope.
It's only a failure in financial terms.
Given a lot of the backing was Russian money any looses are tiny compared to Putin getting his puppets into power.
Hopefully this year, the Twitter value will be $0.00. Then, the Tesla value needs to drop. We need to make sure that Musk feels the pain that the average person feels every day.
I really want to post articles like this one for Bluesky on X. Now I feel a little bit bad that I canceled my account. Does anyone else have an account that they could post something about Bluesky? Really, I wanna stick it to Elon! https://apnews.com/article/bluesky-x-twitter-dcc4f92f9d0386dbacc3f30376b38dbc
You notice we haven't heard much about that again. But the migrants in Ohio have certainly felt the damage and they have tried to move on best they can. Now they worry about mass deportations.
I go back a few times a day for just a couple of minutes at a time to see whose melting down, and other nonsense and once in a while, I will post something completely obnoxious and I donβt care.
I strongly encourage folks to deactivate their Twitter X accounts and remove the app from all their devices. This is the only way we can hit musk in his wallet because declining subscribers and metrics from declining apps will cause a reduction and advertising revenue.
Same here. Many seem to be hanging on as if some sort of security blanket. X will never be a safe, peaceful, happy place, Trump and musk took that away from us. The endgame is to see that MAG a cesspool formally known as Twitter going down in flames and cease to exist.
They cost money because Musk charges these apps to use his API, but I might delete my account without bothering to delete my tweets. It turns out that your data gets deleted within 30 days.
I read that too, thereβs a 30 day cooling off, just in case one changes their minds which I donβt expect to do. I did hear that thereβs some 3rd-party free app that allows you to export all your followers from Twitter/X into this platform, but I have yet to look into it. Iβm still a newbie here. π€·π»ββοΈ
This gets quoted a lot these days but, the first amendment only matters when it's speech you do not like. I'm okay if you and I disagree on things, this platform is straight up kicking people off over speech you do not like.
And the first amendment doesn't apply to websites. The first amendment has to do with how the government acts. But you knew that already.
Really? People are being thrown off of this site for using speech that I don't like? Please name 5, and what that unpopular speech was.
My comment gets blocked and people have been kicked if I type out what they said, about genders or something else political, you won't see my response, and I'll get hidden or banned outright. I literally can't name you the 5 things on this platform lol
Great, so people aren't getting "kicked off" of anything for having different opinions. Bigots are getting added to block lists and that makes the bigots sad.
Bullies don't like it when they aren't allowed to bully people.
So go back to twitter, you can be all the bigot you want to be.
If there is anyone who is still looking at Twitter, do you see any difference with the lack of tweets by regular liberal/progressive people? If so, how is it different?
You could see a difference even WITH the presence of the tweets. The website slowly lost it's functionality over time and it's userbase became either increasingly all AI slop bots, or extremist right wing freaks.

Here?
Do not engage. Do not reply. Just block.
When they find themselves with no one to fight with, they will go back to Twitter.
The 10 pro- trump accounts I blocked today could be calling me names, but I don't have to know or care.
And lunch was delicious!
No need to talk about Xhitter as it doesn't support free speech, just propaganda.
You know according to multivere theory there is a version of a universe where this happens. God, I would do anything to live in that one.

Space Karen Sissy SpaceX's $44 billion purchase of Twitter puts banks at significant risk for financing it.
Brand Finance valued Twitter at $5.7 billion in 2022, $3.9 billion in 2023, and $673.3 million in 2024.
