Unless something's changed in the last few years, the darknet is too difficult for normies to use.

A real democracy wouldn't allow a fascist to even run for office. Advocating for fascism and authoritarianism in a republic isn't a valid political stance. It's sedition.
At this point you have to wonder if they're actively complicit.
Twitter isn't making money anyway
This is nothing new at all, the GOP has been pushing their bs worldwide for years now. It's baffling how the liberals and leftists just sit around and allow these people to out-organize them, especially when it comes to media.
Nah it's clearly ideological when you look at the details of their new moderation policies. They now allow you to call people crazy, but only if it's because they're LGBT.
They pretend they don't hate gay people but vote for people and policies that are virulently homophobic. It's all performative bullshit so they can pretend they're still good people.
Oh you mean like specifically disallowing people from calling someone crazy unless that person is gay or trans? How the fuck is that "free speech"?
I can post some violent fantasy online and meta won't allow you to call me crazy for it, but if you call me crazy because you think I'm gay that's just fine?
Fuck Mark Zuckerberg, evil motherfucker.
I strongly disagree, reading any kind of book requires sustaining attention over long periods of time. It doesn't matter if it's 50 Shades or Ulysses, you don't get a dopamine rush from reading a book for 30 seconds like you do with Internet and social media. It's not the same at all and it's not just about prestige. I'd argue that the prestige comes from the fact tha reading books requires more effort and dedication
Odd that it's a choice between them. We learned Shakespeare and Homer where I am in the US.
*Plurality and it's still sedition on the part of the leaders. If you advocate for authoritarianism in a republic then you are inherently advocating for overthrowing the republic. You are advocating for some people to have rights, while others don't.
It doesn't matter if a majority of voters want that, they don't have the right to strip the minority of their right to representation.
All authoritarian ideologies are inherently incompatible with the concept of natural rights
