Seriously. Respect for people like Fauci holy shit

I would have said "fuuuuuck youuu" a looong time ago if people are so nasty against you while you try to help them

It's a shame people like Elon can say stupid (attacking) things and don't bare any consequences

He understands #Twitter! 😮

"Cesspool of misinformation".

Musk has at this point shown that he has zero interest in preventing real harm coming to real people and zero hesitation to cause it himself to anyone who doesn't speak or act in a way that serves his interests.

Whether he's doing it to "rile up the left", or for engagement, or out of vindictiveness isn't as relevant as the damage he's in a position to cause, which is especially concerning given how he continues to target marginalised people.

There's a new groups system for the Fediverse called chirp.social. More info at:

➡️ https://chirp.social

You can join a group by following the group account. You can post to the group by @-ing the group account, which then reposts that to all its other followers

It is similar to the existing https://a.gup.pe system, but chirp.social allows a group manager to delete posts and ban people from the group.

It works on all Fediverse platforms including Mastodon.

Shout out to the pro-science folks here and on twitter who admonished me for leaving and told me (1) I was letting down the cause and (2) by leaving I was playing politics instead of doing science.

No. A bully runs that house, and I'm walking out the door. You have no right to tell anyone to stay with an abuser and put up with threats to their own safety.

Unless you've weathered three years of death threats for your public health advocacy, keep it to yourself.

Kevin McCarthy privately called for Twitter to ban certain Republicans—now he claims outrage that Twitter banned certain Republicans.

Donald Trump had the chance to do a prisoner swap for Paul Whelan—now he claims outrage that Biden didn't swap for Whelan.

The GOP voted unanimously to cut taxes for billionaires—now they claim outrage that the deficit has grown just as they knew it would.

The GOP has no values. They are power hungry extremists. Please get active, get organized, & vote them out

Elon Musk just tweeted the phrase "Branch Covidians" unironically.

The world's (now second) richest man cynically using COVID denial to promote his agenda.

This has been the standard throughout the pandemic. Capital interests have used COVID minimization/denialism to tamp down demands for worker protections and government interventions that are seen as a threat to bottom lines.

In the process of trying to burn down a powerful site for information and discourse, he inadvertently pushed us all towards a better one.

Thankful for his misstep. Let the brightly burning, inflammatory, attention seeking narcissists have their playground. It'll be empty soon enough.

It’s awful that it took a war for the US to wake up to the threat of the Russian oligarchy, but this interview with Andrew Adams, the head of DOJ’s KleptoCapture is SPOT. ON.

It’s refreshing to see smart people like this in power https://www.voanews.com/a/voa-interview-how-us-enforces-russia-sanctions/6873230.html

Some Jan 6. Committee staffers have asked their supervisors if they should preemptively retain lawyers. Others were advised to purchase professional liability insurance in anticipation of a coming GOP counter-investigation. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/jan-6-committee-republican-revenge-1234646303/

Boy this is getting nasty distressingly fast

It appears that the Mastodon migration is having a noticeable effect. Elmo's Twitter is now putting all tweets that contain links to Mastodon servers behind "sensitive content" warnings. I guess mentioning the competition doesn't meet Elmo's criteria for "free speech".

Probably also worth noting:

My dear twitter refugees,

As you are grieving the communities you are leaving behind, please remember Musk bought a platform, not a community.

YOU built the communities, and you will build them again.
