Lol, nothing like waiting until the last possible moment to do the tiniest thing that won’t even accomplish anything at this point and then writing an article about it.

Yup. Here’s what I did:

  1. recommend others not vote for him in 2016
  2. didn’t vote for him in 2016
  3. avoided TruthSocial and other nonsense during his first term
  4. encouraged friends and family to not vote for him in 2020
  5. didn’t vote for him in 2020
  6. continued to avoid TruthSocial
  7. encouraged friends and family to not vote for him in 2024
  8. didn’t vote for him in 2024

See a pattern?

It’s past time to delete X. The platform is just as bad as it was a year ago. People couldn’t be bothered to do the simplest fucking thing until they realize, “Whoops! I was supporting fascism!”

To be fair, I’ve been on there calling the fascists and Trump apologists out. The pennies they get from ads pale in comparison to the fact I bought a Tesla years ago womp womp 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🫤

I only have one to read stuff locked behind a login wall. But even for that I seldom use it.

Never signed up for Twitter and definitely not X. Leon can give to his pals in Moscow.
