Let's not promote divisions.
Unless you meant: "people should stop using social media in which there are monetary incentives to be sensationalist", which I definitely agree on.
I would love if we had more civilized discussions on the web, we would understand eachother better that way. But it's an impossible ask.

- tempfile 2y agoHi, could you do me a favour and point out which of the following count as conservative (or more recently, centrist) view points, to you? > The paid accounts posting the content all consistently posted antisemitic or pro-Nazi material. Examples included praise of Nazi soldiers, sharing of Nazi symbols and denials of the Holocaust. https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-media/x-twitter-elon-musk-nazi-extremist-white-nationalist-accounts-rcna145020 https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-media/x-twitter-elon-mus... The facts are still the facts, even if you don't happen to know them.
- ChocolateGod 2y agoBy the same logic, because Bluesky has a child predator problem everyone on Bluesky is one. But the example you gave doesn't counter my point of the worst facist/nazi being watered down to that it doesn't have any weight anymore, if anything it supports it.
