I totally agree. Most people think Elmo fumbled into it, or bought Twitter for his ego, but they forget that he has big & powerful investors/co-owners, who would benefit from fracturing (into a million tiny pieces, dispersed now onto several alternative platforms) the might that was us on Twitter.

RA @intheweedsTBH I think throttling engagement on Twitter was the goal from the start. How many uprisings coordinated on twitter, how many people got their news directly from independent journalists, how many people were inspired to activism?08:57 PM - Jul 01, 2023

No, Fani Willis’s case against Trump has NOT been destroyed
Judge McAfee made it crystal clear that Willis can re-file, adding more details
He’s just covering himself — making sure he can’t be overturned on appeal after Trump and his cronies get convicted
Because they will be.

Remember how we were all defeated and convinced democracy was over when the Mueller report went nowhere?
Biden beat Trump anyway. By a lot.
We can do it again.
Don't give up. That's what they want.

Kimberley Johnson @KimberleyJohnsonAll this chaos is coming at us. It's intentional.08:32 PM - Feb 28, 2024
I refuse to panic. Republicans and Russians want us to feel hopeless. If we choose hopelessness, we hand them victory.
Fuck that.
Dems have been winning and Republicans have been UNDERPERFORMING.
Do not fall for the chaos.

Not everyone will understand this but let me say, Fani Willis vividly displays the awesome and scary ‘potential’ that sparks at the core of racism against blacks.
It is our ‘potential’ that others have often feared and sought to oppress. She is an equal among those who see themselves as kings.

Polls told us Democrats were in trouble in NY.
The election told us (AGAIN) that the polls were wrong. A Democrat replaced Santos.
STOP FREAKING OUT OVER CHEAP, INACCURATE POLLS.
News media wants you to freak out so you keep clicking their bait.

Democrats will flip NY-3 tonight, and they will overperform and exceed expectations. However, before noon tomorrow, some pundit or journalist will find a way to paint it as a negative for Biden and Democrats. Save this spout.

BREAKING: Judge Cannon is outing 25+ people who participated in the Mar-a-Lago investigation, forcing the government to hand the names over to Trump's lawyers.
This, after the govt argued that these witnesses are receiving threats online.
11th Circuit must intervene - NOW

Tristan Snell @tristansnellJudge Cannon is going to get someone killed if she keeps this up.10:30 PM - Feb 09, 2024
Endangering witnesses AND endangering national security and our intelligence assets overseas?!?
She is too reckless to remain in charge of the documents case.

Trump stole documents on confidential informants in January 2021 and 9 months later CIA Counterintelligence sent a top secret cable warning an unusually high number of confidential informants had been killed, captured, or compromised. I feel like more people should mention that.

You might be a psychotic incel if a pop star encourages fans to register to vote and you declare a "holy war" on her.

The naysayers can bite me. This place that you built is full of bright, wonderful, caring people who make me think, help me learn and make me laugh. So many who I would and DO proudly call my friends. It exemplifies social media in all the best ways.

Christopher Bouzy @cbouzyTomorrow is Spoutible's one-year anniversary. The naysayers said we would never launch a platform, and when we did, they said we would close within two months. We are the Joe Biden of social media platforms; they keep underestimating us while we keep proving them wrong.07:06 AM - Jan 31, 2024![GIF-Image]()

As long as I live, I will never forgive Susan Collins for both allowing Brett Kavanaugh to become a Supreme Court Justice, and not voting to convict Donald Trump because she felt he’d learned his lesson.

Today, @cbouzy made a great point.
We'll all be on different platforms for various reasons.
But here? I'll be my more honest self.
I'll still share opinions but, like talking about the passing of my Mom or upcoming surgery, this is where I'll be w/out (much of) a filter.
Grateful for that.

It's crazy here. No one's trying to argue with me about who won the 2020 election or how Ashli Babbitt was a hero even though 1/6 was a plot by the FBI
