I read the article.

and I get that we were all taught to ask questions for the titles on our high school essays, but asking why pro-hitler content is promoted by a company whose CEO literally publicly performed a Nazi salute is less effective than the headline:

"There is a pro-hitler and Holocaust-denying ad on Twitter."

It's like we have forgotten - some questions have a right answer.

"Was"? It was removed, right?.... RIGHT?

People are still questioning why??

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

Why? Because it's owned by Nazis.

Better question: Why the fuck are you still on Twitter?

Better question: what are people going to do in response?

Probably nothing. Disappointing.

I already don't use Twitter, and encourage my friends not to, either. But I did that years ago. There's not really a whole lot else I can do? Start a Fight Club, squat in an old condemned house, and blow up their building at the end? I have bills to pay and family that depends on those bills being paid.

the most important thing you can do is organize on any anticapitalist or antifascist organization.
