One of Trump and Musk’s biggest fuck ups and that’s saying something is making Twitter unusable so that people no longer feel like posting is activism, they actually have to be part of a visible in-person crowd.

“No no you don’t understand I’m a PEACEFUL protester I said on the internet that I thought this OW that I thought OW FUCK that I thought this was counter productive OW SHIT OW”

This is a problem with the establishment: they don't see politics as a practice of mind-changing or shifting public opinion, as something that The People can lead — they want to maintain total control on opinion, keep it to the least imaginative ambition, and then gaslight you for calling them out.
