I'm so happy I never got a Twitter account. I never have and I never well. I get to hear horror stories and comedies from folks like from our beloved UlyssesT power poster extraordinaire (and annoying podcasters of various stripes and backgrounds, it's crazy how every podcast I listen into has a Twitter report section of some sort these days). It's also deeply not funny and genuinely upsetting how tech companies and platforms have so much unearned and undue sway on global communications. It's cliche to say but it's straight out of a 90's cyberpunk graphic novel how these companies just loudly and increasingly stupid ways control how we talk online.
I make sure never to directly link to Le Epic X Dot Com The Everything App Of Free Speech (but don't you dare say "cis!") and borrow screenshots instead whenever possible from a third party.
Truly the hero this site needs. Thank you for your service. . Also excellent use of Elrond.
Also holup, you can't say CIS? like cisgendered? For real?
Social networks were astroturfed into both importance and mandatory performative presence, with loaded articles in newsrags saying stuff like "WE ALL ARE ON FACEBOOK NOW. ISN'T THAT SOMETHING?!".... "Sometimes astroturfing feels so blatant that I can smell the petrochemicals... complete with SEO faces of awe and wonder presented on every fucking image tied to such propaganda."
Exactly dude. Fuckin' exactly!!! You can waft in that fresh manufactured consent. Some days I feel like a geezer but the NET (not just social media which people often confuse with the internet as a whole) has been radically astroturfed .
