I can tell you already that Elon is not going to win this battle.
I don't understand why anyone put their trust in the hands of a technocrat who had over a dozen monkeys die in his brain chip trial, and then still went ahead with human testing anyway.
This thing is just a text-book psychological operation. You divide conservatives in half along the lines of those who truly hate Indian people versus those who don't and just want basic citizen first policies.
It's fucking tiresome.

I think it's going to lead to those on the ethnonat right to leave Twitter and join some other platform. The plan is to put everyone into their own echo-chambers where their ideas can never be challenged.

* Apoliticals still on Twitter
* Musk fans also on Twitter
* MAGA boomers on Gab, Minds, and Truth Social
* Right-libertarians on Nostr
* Ethnonationalists and ethnosupremacists on fedi instances like Poast and NCD
* Leftists on BlueSky
* Extreme Leftists on most Mastodon servers
There will be exceptions, of course, but this is where we are heading towards.

After the election, I made some big-brain takes on #fedi to the effect that whoever abuses the ban button loses the election and gets banished into the wilderness of political irrelevancy
Yes, I'm KbC-anon on a 1-user instance in #Tokyo, and I'm unironically saying that reddit is politically irrelevant. I'm very proud of my koolaid actually

I still hold on to the "ban button is political suicide" theory. I think that the #elonmusktwitter meltdown is #GamerGate2 and will blow up in Elon's face; a totally unforced error on his part.
