I think there's a serious disconnect between what liberal means in the US and what it means elsewhere.

I think they mean “anyone who doesn’t support Musk/Trump.”
I know thats the real definition. That doesnt make sense with the posted quote though. Why would Musk care if everyone that didn't like him left twitter?
He’d lose a lot of money from premium memberships and ad revenue.
Same for conservative
"Conservatives" are usually right wing extremists, thats the same everywhere.
Complexity and nuance of the real world hurts my brain as well
Yeah, and thats the reason why you are a "conservative".
Why anyone still wants to participate in a Nazi-friendly playground is baffling to me. I get not deleting when he bought it. Maybe it won’t be that bad.
It is that bad and a hundred other kinds of bad on top of that. Look at the “investors” that helped him buy Twitter. Delete that shit. It’s spyware and propaganda.
Knowing what my feed is like it's hilariously absurd to think of twitter as a "nazi-friendly" playground. I mean, perhaps it is but it sure is friendly to a lot of other fringe groups as well that nazies would want nothing to do with.
"Nice people made the best Nazis. My mom grew up next to them. They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than “politics.” They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away. You know who weren’t nice people? Resisters."
Using twitter enables a Nazi leader. It's as simple as that.
You can rationalize why you continue to use it, but it won't change the facts. Honestly knowing you don't care about the harm you're doing tells me a lot about your character regardless of the friends you think you have.
I don't agree with your narrative. Implying Elon is a nazi is a rather bold claim that you can't back up with anything. That's like me saying he's a sissy cuckold because he allows that shit on my feed.
You want me to toss you a shovel or are you good down there digging that hole yourself?
I don't have many followers. I only keep it installed to quickly find out if Netflix or Xbox is down when my shit don't work. I haven't used it in months.
