Do any of you actually build networks and post content or just show up on Elm St and hope your message spreads through thoughts and prayers. I bet must of you don’t even have accounts on most social media
Kind of cool that you were convinced to weaponize this passion to remove yourself from social media where you could do some good. Good thing the timing isn’t convenient or anything
What the fuck are you talking about? Any actual plans to get rid of the fascists in charge is not going to be posted about on social media. It’s going to talked about quietly in people’s basements and shit.
You still have democracy. What are you going to do in your basement when you can’t even use the greatest tool ever invented for organizing people? You’re like someone who’s barely managed a 5k acting as if they’re ready for a marathon because deep down you really believe you are. It’s the same mindset as people saying, “We’ll just colonize another planet,” instead of solving the problems here.
If you can’t create engagement, build networks, and promote content and ideas today, you’re not going to magically organize anything from a basement. Believing otherwise is what’s truly delusional.
Perpetually online motherfuckers moving around through inertia alone with no capacity for anything that remotely feels like confrontation.
We’re doomed to this.
I don’t think it’s just the perpetually online. I think Americans in general still think they will be able to actually vote in the mid terms
That too. There aren’t going to be any midterms. Any elections we do have will be in the style of the Putin regime.

No, we decided not to hand over all our data and that of our friends to the fascist machine grinding down the world’s democracies. But it sounds fun.
Right, so how do you expect to coordinate or spread information in any meaningful way?
Without the interference of fascists and the selling out of all my contacts and private information.
If that’s too high a bar, then I guess I won’t be spreading information meaningfully.

Social media is not “the greatest tool for organizing people.” It’s a tool for the wealthy to scoop up our data.
