Is this third positioning?

      Well most people. Bluesky ended up being a perfect alternative…excecpt no one actually wants peace and quiet, they want to argue all day so they came back.

        No wonder the stupid ass nazi site doesn’t close down if all you supposed leftists are on there still. How are we going to have a revolution if everyone is too fucking ridiculously addicted to idiot shit like twitter to even quit it

          Twitter is a good source of news from journalists who have a lack of better options for a platform that gets information out as a quickly as possible. Thankfully, IRC is making a comeback.

          I personally don’t use it, but I understand someone having an account to keep an eye on what’s happening in the current chud-sphere or literal official white house statements. Or to find IRCs/channels for news. Paying for it is inexcusable, though.

            There’s a difference between one person ‘keeping an eye on it’ and thousands just not wanting to leave it because it’s what’s familiar. You don’t have to pay for it to support it you just have to be using it.

              I can agree with that still, but I don’t blame people using it for certain journalists who don’t have a substack or other form of “alternative media” that isn’t channel slop especially when there isn’t as much of a presence on alternatives.

              In the same vein as well, we can say a lot about pretty much anything we use as being a byproduct of serious evil exploitation.
