AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

No, I think you're dense. Because for some reason you keep avoiding that the initial comment I made was about leftist journalist and commentators.
You agreed that the majority of people are not on the platform because they follow those people. They follow non political celebrities.
Can you not follow?
(1) Leftist journalist and commentators primary goal is to reach normal everyday people. (2) The vast majority of normal everyday people are on Twitter (3) Those same leftist leaving the platform will do nothing to change the prominence of normal everyday people using it. Because (as we both agreed) those people are there to read non political celebrities.
Therefore, there is no meaningful reason for them to leave the platform if their goal online is to spread leftist perspectives.
So, I understand why leftist journalist and commentators remain on the platform. It is the still the best place to reach the audience they are trying to reach.
Like, you keep talking in general "if everyone leaves it will die".
I'm not, and have not ever been talking about that. You can just admit you misunderstood my initial comment instead of doubling down on your own misunderstanding.
And you keep ignoring the subgroup of people that I'm referring to and have still not proposed what leftist journalist and commentators should do instead. You're just advocating for them to have a smaller platform that only reaches people lib'd enough to only be on blue sky.
This is the problem with idealistic thought like you are engaging in. You are focusing on the moral ideas of the individual. You for some reason do not care about the actual material outcome of the actions. Again, you are advocating for virtue signaling and nothing else.
The only material outcome of a small group of commentators and journalist leaving would be that less people hear leftist ideas and news perspectives. That's it.
Well, I guess it would make YOU feel better. But, I guess that's just the way your brain works. You're stuck in a moral idealism and are not able to think about the actual material outcome you're advocating for. "The idea" of what them leaving would mean is more important to you I guess.
It's why you keep pretending a small amount of people leaving would help change Twitters monopoly. It will not. It's why you keep avoiding the fact that I'm talking about a small subset of Twitter users.
Bwahahahahahahah
Keep doubling down on your nonsense with this being about just lefty media.
(1)This is about everyone left on the platform and not your cherry picked political characters with their own propaganda. They can go fuck themselves if they think can reach and convert Nazis on a platform they control.
(2)Every celebrity, sports personality and content creator still left on Nazi Twitter needs to delete their account and force the stupid sheep to not have any reason left to head into the Nazi bar. Not just the small number of commenters.
The people will follow if the content they want isn’t on Twitter. Yet even one of those celebrities still wants to suckle in the Nazi platform hence normalizing the Nazi platform. Hence (3) you keep thinking about the chicken instead of the egg. The journalist will go where the people go and not the other way around…
Not once did I advocate solely for the leaving of lefty politicians and commentators. It’s about anyone left in that shithole being Nazis enablers at this point.
So at this point shove the lefties still at the Nazi bar into the trash and accept they want the attention that being on the Nazi platform brings. Leftist journalist and commentators should do is either leave for a platform that is not run by and funds a Nazi like Mastodon or accept they are participating with Nazis and enabling them. Pretty fucking simple.
Can you follow or are you gonna moan: “but my propaganda journalists” while apologizing for Nazi simps?
Cool. We've gotten to the point of delusion that you believe your own misunderstanding of my initial comment.
It's ok mate. You literally just didn't understand the point of my initial comment and then over the course of a back and forth you expanded on that misunderstanding to the point that you have lost all sense and are now just arguing against your own misunderstanding.
It's quite remarkable. Go reread this thread if you don't believe me. For your own sanity I'll go ahead and block you. Good luck!
Bwahahahaha you can just admit you like defending the CP and Nazi platform.
