There’s no criticism there. Calling people racists and bots is not criticism, it’s just name calling. There is nothing critical about it.

- King-Aaron 9mo agoIt was an observation, and a criticism. It was massively reported that Shitter has a huge problem with bots, and was very publicly known when company valuations were happening. And, since the handover to Musk, there has been a documented shift to extreme-right-wing content on the site. I'm not going to beat around the bush. You know as well as I do that X has become the de-facto social media network for extreme-right demographics and the overall quality of content has objectively diminished as a result.
- tommica 9mo agoYes, the quality has gone down, but not much quality can be had in 140 characters in the first place - so it is impressive that it was managed in the first place. > their users are either racists, bots, or simply garbage people It is a bit intolerant to go and blanket label a large group of people like that. Sure there are extreme views, but that is what is bound to happen when you have a large amount of users on a platform. So it is on reddit, bluesky, YouTube and what-not. But there are also a lot of milder people.
