@andypiper Choose a network that doesn’t try to make you dependent, but leaves the door open when you need a break. Choose conversation over conflict. Choose slow social instead of doomscrolling. Choose people, not brands. Choose Fediverse. Because maybe the internet isn’t broken — maybe it just needs to belong to us again.
@evan Hmmm... I didn't see the poll in time to vote, but it's pretty clear to me that what's going on is at least attempted fascism, if not incipient fascism. Have a look at Umberto Eco's list of core characteristics and tell me you can’t find an example of each one in the actions of the current US administration.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ur-Fascism
