    The unwillingness of people to accept that “X” is Elon Musk’s personal blog and not a neutral public forum is just sad at this point. The death of Twitter sucks, and I’m sure it’s harder for people that built so much of their identity or brand on it, but it happened. Twitter was a fun site that existed for a while, born and snuffed out at the whims of venture capital like a million sites before it.

    The response here shouldn’t be “beg this shithead to let me back in so he can ban me again in the future,” it should be to exit permanently.

    Let Twitter become worse and worse until it goes under, get out before you’re the last non-Nazis on the site.

    Honestly I might respect this more if it was cynical anti-Palestine censorship. Banning them because they pointed out your friend’s wife did plagiarism is so sad and petty.

    Help get me unbanned from fascist social media by posting about it on fascist social media!

    Buddy, I deleted my account a year ago. And Substack has a Nazi problem as well, so maybe reconsider your whole online presence.

      I looked up the squirrel’s other social media after they got banned because I liked his posts. He has Instagram as well. I hope the Fediverse will continue becoming less and less of a fringe thing. I noticed some of the other people on the list have a Bluesky account but I’ve not really heard much about it.

    OK so now they’ve all been reinstated and Elon Musk started talking about how he’s a bastion of free speech again! Tulsi Gabbard approves!
