    Sent from Twitter…

    Literally every Tweet needs a link to literally anywhere else. Mastadon, Bluesky, freaking 4chan, doesn’t matter; anywhere but Twitter, otherwise it’s just feeding the trolls.

    Bernie’s old I guess, but I wish his staff (and pretty much everyone not MAGA) knew better.

      It makes perfect sense considering the user numbers. His people probably posted the same things by to all of his socials. Also the people he is trying to get through to are on Twitter.

        This is the fallacy. Twitter is not a forum, it is an algorithmic attention optimizing feed. It literally will not show people things they don’t want to see, because that’s bad for engagement. With Musk in charge, this’d be like showing up to a debate hosted, moderated, run, and censored by an authoritarian party; all Bernie’s doing is validating opponents.

        The only move is to step away, aka:

        Don’t feed the trolls.
