Today in Musk Twitter: Musk joins COVID denialism, calls for prosecution of Dr. Fauci

[solarbird]

Elon Musk called today for the prosecution of Dr. Anthony Fauci, joining the ranks of psychotic QAnon denialism. Screencap.

He’s also sending fascist hordes at his critics - the attacks on the former head of Twitter’s trust and safety committee are all over fascist channels on Telegram.

It is legitimately not safe, as in violently not safe, to be a Musk critic on Twitter anymore.

Get. The. Fuck. Off. Twitter. Now.

Yeah, it's... it's really awful and scary.

Hi! ^_^

I've seen several people talking about two ways to morally stay on twitter (which sadly can't be combined):

1) Don't block ads, but instead reject *all* ads, I'm told that eventually they'll stop showing you ads because you've rejected everything, so you show up to advertisers as someone willing to see ads, but who doesn't like any of the ads Twitter has, which looks quite bad for Twitter.

2) (more work, but even more useful) Block and reject *zero* ads and email each advertiser (with screenshots) every time you see their ad next to something unpleasant, which given that Musk fired essentially everyone making certain that sort of thing didn't happen, it's happening a lot now).
