The tech fascists want to be kings of their own countries. You cannot use their own tools against them. They aren’t going to allow it.

Can't spell metastasis without META: Delete this cancer from your life and get rid of your accounts on Facebook, Instagram, etc.

Really important to be building alternatives

Network effect though. When it comes to social engagement, you go to the most popular option because that's where people are.

To be clear, I agree with building alternatives. Just acknowledging why people still use Facebook for this stuff.

I saw a headline "Why No Kings Protestors are not young", something along those lines.

Well yeah...if you're using FB.
