Reply to comment by LuinAelin in Twitter faces legal complaint in Germany over anti-Semitic content by davetowers646

Yeah, before it was a bastion of civilized discourse.... /s

Before The Elongated One took over, I often flagged blatant racism, but often I got a reply it was not against their rules.

It has probably gotten even worse, but don't pretend as if it was okay before the sink was let in....

Well no it wasn’t great before but holy shit did it get waaaaay worse than I think any reasonable person could have predicted. Like even if you were expecting Musk to fuck it up for no goddamn reason, it’s still gotten significantly worse.

I don't see much difference, but then again I avoid political circlejerkers etc. I use twitter for updates on fusion, NASA, stuff like that. When I start to follow somebody politically active, it's indeed like opening a sewer. So I try to avoid looking at comments. Lots of gruesome uncensored stuff from ukr/rus war too, lately. Not sure if that is a good thing or not, because some of that stuff is blatantly lying (old vids from other wars etc.)

Then again.... I'm against censorship, but some stuff is clearly manipulative lies... Obv. paid by somebody to sell certain narratives...

And lots of people fall for that kind of stuff. It can be very insidious.

Where will it/we all end?

You know what your problem is? You don't hate Elin Musk for ambiguous reasons

I repeatedly reported an account called adolf_hodler and they always replied that it didn't violate the rules.

You have no idea how much worse it's gotten.
