Can’t agree here. I barely use Xitter any more because even when being selective about topics it’s still unsettlingly common to see blue checks showing up in the top of the replies posting some of the most vile things I’ve seen on the publicly accepted internet without the slightest hint of irony.

I would if X’s owner weren’t a literal nazi who does literal nazi salutes. It’s not really an exaggeration.
And idk where anyone else is looking but while there are still some good posters the comments on X are uniformly vile

Setting aside whether or not Elon was trying to do a Nazi salute (as people have made up their minds on that and aren't going to change), it is factually false to call him a "literal Nazi". The Nazi party doesn't exist, there can't be literal Nazis any more. At most you could accuse him of holding to Nazi ideals, but please be accurate in the accusations you levy. Exaggerating by calling someone a "literal Nazi" is extremely unhealthy for society.

Dawg, all he talks about is white genocide.
I can compromise on neo-nazi

Show videos - a wave and a salute are different.
Twitter/X is just like every other social network - follow the topics that interest you and you will get good content.
