@GoodPerson @Sir_Ivissia @Sui @sim society, human nature, whatever, whether you believe in modernity as a demonic entity or not the question is what actions can you take that will increase your agency as an individual?
very possibly God, Christianity... it could be studying science, starting a business or, you know, writing a book
no one can back you except yourself, even God is powerless before that kind of abandonment. I don't sense that from you, so why not run with the conviction that your life is your own
for all the back and forth on Covid bullshit, I have to say that the Office for National Statistics (ONS) seems to have enough good people to fight the good fight, our numbers have been framed in various ways but it's clear there's a hard core that have resisted political influence and are determined to follow the data, come what may
@sim @Sir_Ivissia @Sui @GoodPerson modernity is not an entity go out and do the thing

The thing about Twitter is that it really lacks a lot of the features you'd expect from a true Mastodon replacement.
For example, there's no way to edit your toots (which they, confusingly call "tweets"—let's face it, it's a bit of a silly name that's difficult to take seriously).
"Tweets" can't be covered by a content warning. There's no way to let the poster know you like their tweet without also sharing it, and no bookmark feature.
There's no way to set up your own instance, and you're basically stuck on a single instance of Twitter. That means there's no community moderators you can reach out to to quickly resolve issues. Also, you can't de-federate instances with a lot of problematic content.
It also doesn't Integrate with other fediverse platforms, and I couldn't find the option to turn the ads off.
Really, Twitter has made a good start, but it will need to add a lot of additional features before it gets to the point where it becomes a true Mastodon replacement for most users.

parenting evolved before society even existed in a technological society the correct and humane solution is sending all kids in the wilderness and seeing who survives
any more exchanges planning to roll over or can we start buying
@BlackAzizAnansi it's so we don't have to use the hellsite to see what the twits are on about
if elon touted mastodon NPCs would hate it so he had to buy twitter
