The far right caucus is a lot like hostage takers who threaten to kill one hostage every hour until their demands are met.

I would imagine people with huge followings and money to burn. Once the paywall is up, those huge followings are going to shrink fast.

For lazy guys like myself, who has Rosemary in the garden, I'd probably buy the Rosemary syrup made by Bacanha.

In the end of the article, the author plugged their competing platform so this isn't a neutral opinion. I still agree with it. A federation of online retailers would be an interesting idea. Given that it involves exchanging money for products, it would be a lot more completed than kbin, lemmy, or Mastodon.

Brick and mortar store do it too. Pharmacies sell name brand drugs and their own generic version next to them. I buy the generic version. I would like to lose that option. Amazon is a different story.

The escalation may have nothing to do with the slow demise of Twitter. It may be the case that the liberals have gotten used to one level of trolling and ignore it. Trollers then have to become even more extreme to get their attention.

I kind of like the "troll-industrial complex", but agree on your over take on the writing. Gone are the days when writers could produce great alliterations like "nattering nabobs of negativity".

Decades ago, the Russians developed a tertiary computer using -5, 0, and 5 volts. It went no where probably because it wasn't much of an improvement over a binary computer.
