Just realized it's now been two months since I was locked out of Twitter for factual reporting. I could delete the (non-rule-breaking) tweet and go back but, to be honest, I just don't feel any real desire to. It's a social network built for one, and not a place where you can trust that real reporting won't be punished on a whim. Every tweet supports a place that's hostile to what we do. Why enable that?
@drewharwell That’s an incredible question, people see a site that goes against their ethics and still push that bird button, it doesn’t make sense to me. I deleted my posts and likes in the run up to the musk purchase, then gave him 2 weeks. He sucked, I deleted the app. Easy
@drewharwell Ironically the last person I followed on Twitter, wrote an very interesting article about how Musk is leading a corporate charge to downsize, reduce wage, increase in-person work hours. The article stated that companies are watching to see if he’s successful so they can implement similar policies. I thought, “this guy can’t win, we all need to be off this site”, there was and has been a lot more since, but it was a huge red flag. I wish I remembered the author.
I just hope people see what is going on at Tesla and start to unionise, rather than just letting it happen. Amazon have got a way with a lot, as have others.
First step is to unionise, the next step is to rebuild business models so huge corporations are no longer viable, small business and cooperatives, independently owned and controlled, needs to be the way forward.
Get back to old fashioned customer service for a start.
