    The vast majority of people using twitter are not thinking “I’m supporting a nazi but it’s okay”. They are thinking “I’m using twitter because I enjoy the content/interaction”.

    The issue on Reddit, and Lemmy even more so, is that you frame the issue as if people are knowingly supporting a nazi. This a silly straw man argument the only gets upvotes in chronically online circles

      Have you been on Twitter recently? I kept getting white supremacist and MAGA tweet notifications left and right. I only followed progressive pages and random bands and music festivals. I even tested it out - blocked a high profile Nazi that I kept getting tweet notifications for - sure enough, got a notification for that same Nazi. It’s a Nazi platform, 100%. Are you a Muskrat apologist/dickrider or something? Because that’s what you come off across as. I’ve seen it with my own eyes, dawg.

        Yes I have, and it’s nothing like what you describe on my end. I don’t even care for twitter, I’m just explaining to you why your views are extremist and contain zero nuance. The world is not so black and white. Go touch grass my brother.
