nazispeoplePlenty of businesses ready and willing to do business with stable (and rich) Nazis, dictators and slavers. Look at the line of people and businesses more than ready to make deals with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, China, etc
If you are rich and have a stable government, there’s no amount of human rights violations and genocides stopping corrupt fuckers from trying to make deals with you and profit.
How I wish that were true.
Five people here think Nazi business is fine. Yikes.
e: wait, 6.
e2: hey guys! Lemmy doesn’t have vote fuzzing yet! (just noticing. there’s no conspiracy here … or is there?)
moooom I’m seeing Nazis everywhere again
Lmao
Can we get a shout out for elon for killing twitter
It’s actually a huge feat to kill such a huge company that had so much momentum. Kudos to him. At this point he could make a business out of ruining things. Pay him to endorse a company if you want to tarnish its reputation.
Every once and a while I wonder if that might have happened
Not the first time I heard that. Met a hardcore Elonstan who defended he’s a genius, and that he was trying to take twitter down to profit off of insurance money.
Yikes. Yeah no. Best id guess is maybe foreign money hoping to tank a liberal platform… But I’m not married to that conspiracy. It assumes he’s smarter than he seems.
foreign money hoping to tank a liberal platform.
Since when was twitter a “liberal platform”?
The rightwingnuts have been running rampant over there for as long as I can remember.
Twitter was very diverse. You could see just what you wanted to see. My twitter was very liberal and tech oriented. But now everyone left.
You could see just what you wanted to see.
That’s not my experience. I never wanted to see rightwing conspiracy crap, but I wasn’t able to avoid it crowding my feed until I avoided Twitter entirely.
maybe to turn it into a not liberal platform, judging from the few times i used it post elon
Elonstan in 2024? Who where?
They exist, believe me…
twitter would be bankrupt if they didn’t exist
Good. Frankly at this point if you’re still on on Twitter I think it’s suspicious.
Why? I have an account because I follow about a dozen people I’d like to see the updates for. I don’t post or search around. Some journalist and sports people. Just because someone you don’t like owns it doesn’t mean anyone who uses it is a piece of shit or whatever. It’s still functionally the same for a lot of functions. Do I use it as much as I used to? No. But I haven’t seen anything worse there than I did at Reddit or here.
You made a coherent argument as to why you use a service, specific to yourself. You get downvoted for doing so. Never change, lemmy.
…Or, perhaps, do change. Y’all can still sniff your own farts if y’all pull y’all’s heads slightly out of your asses.
I remember when I was a kid, at some point in early highschool we had a colleague who was a bit dumb and had blond hair (in a country were that’s pretty rare) so he was commonly bullied and called “piss head” and I did join on the bullying once or twice.
Still to this day I sometimes think of it and feel guilty of, even as a kid myself, having been an asshole to that kid simply to feel I was part of the group.
Sometimes I have the impression that even here in Lemmy a lot of supposedly adults either were always assholes and will always be so, or didn’t go through that part of maturing were you figure out that pilling up on somebody just to be “one of the crowd” isn’t exactly a mature adult thing to do.
Or maybe I’m just overeading it or projecting.
I’m sure you’re not a piece of shit, but by still having a Twitter account equals to supporting the platform and its owner (a proven piece of shit). Even if you’re not giving it any traffic by being logged in or following users (which you’re doing), you’d be giving it your support.
By unfollowing your sports people and quitting the shithole altogether you’re sending a clear message that the platform is dying (it’s already dead for many) and it’s high time for people to find alternatives.
When you describe someone else’s grievance as “someone you don’t like” or “says something you think is bad”, you’re adding an implication that the actual reason is irrelevant. It makes it look like you don’t understand the reason at best, or are deliberately minimizing it at worst.
“If there’s a Nazi at the table and ten other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with eleven Nazis.”
Nice straw man
Just because you don’t like my reply…
Long past that point… If your not on mastodon I don’t really care what you have to say. Bluesky is just another capitalist platform used to motize working class people’s content.
I’ve oddly seen lemmy posts on mastodon lately and it kinda secured to me this is the real “web 3.0”
If you’re on social media I don’t really care what you have to say, if it was anything important it would be in traditional medias.
🙄 what a brain dead take. Why didn’t you go with, “nobodies idea has any value unless they get paid to said it” fuck your stupid ass hierarchy.
Twitter has a pretty solid metal (music) community that I’ve come to know and appreciate over time. We share new bands, our opinions on albums, all that good stuff.
Not everything has to be related to politics. People aren’t “suspicious” because they don’t share all your views.
Metal bands that hang out on the Nazi website? Okay.
“Nazi” website lol. Ok buddy.
I hate to break this too you but there’s Nazi bullshit on every platform.
And nothing of value was lost. I can’t imagine ever wanting to read a tweet from somebody’s console game.
Some ppl used the Twitter integration to export screenshots from their Nintendo Switch since it didn’t require USB or MTP
The point was to be able to send clips from your games directly to social media.
Right, that seems obvious. That’s what I was talking about being of no value. Nobody needs to watch anyone’s console game clips on Twitter.
Nobody needs
to watch anyone’s console game clips onTwitter.FTFY
I get we hate Twitter and rightfully so, but you really don’t see the value for a direct pipeline from consoles to a major social media platform?
People watching other people play video games (streaming, esports, etc) is a multi-billion dollar industry lol
I think there are much better social media platforms for sharing clips. From what I’ve seen, most of Twitter is people angrily typing opinions at each other, so your target demographic may not be there. The UI is designed for text rather than video, and responses/reactions don’t integrate nicely with videos.
Sharing game clips on video-oriented social media makes a tonne sense, however.
Remember, this was established over a decade ago with the PS4/Xbone. It was a very different landscape then.
Regardless Twitter or not, the use case for console -> social media seems pretty clear to me
Ha ha! Fuck you Elon. Way to make your shitty platform irrelevant faster.
So… Mastodon integration instead I hope?
With each company hosting their own mastodon instance! We can bring back console wars with federation/defederation
Nintendo would be spamming ban hammer, Xbox would be full of spam, and PS would be full of Japanese posts & memes lol
its perfect.
This is a great thing.
There need to be material consequences for Nazism.
I think it’s more that it costs money to use the Twitter API now.
Dammit! And here I was thinking corporations had suddenly developed a conscience that put decency above profit… Stupid stupid stupid me. /s
what have they replaced the X button on their controllers with, then?
PlayStation doesn’t have an X button, it has a Cross button. /j
Imagine if instead of X, Δ, O, and ☐ it was 4 different religious symbols. Like those “coexist” bumper stickers.
It makes extremists only able to push a single button and particularly combative atheists able to push none. At least Christians can jump I guess.
How it has not caught on to call it Xitter (Shitter)… I don’t know
I just call it “The website formerly know as Twitter”.
Fucking good, everyone that still supports that wannabe fascist tool wears it as a badge of stupidity, at best.
Surprised that they didn’t remove it earlier
At $42k per month I would have removed/disabled it immediately
Why would I need to pay that kind of money to let my users to post on your social where you’re monetizing it with ads and using the content to increase user engagement? Should be the opposite! The social network paying the game console maker in order to get preferential treatment and prominent share buttons
So X is shorthand for Nazi right?
Heck - even the letter is just a sans sarif Swastika.
Elon Musk comes out onto a stage and announces that Tesla is entering the game console market when?
I believe you can already play games on the Tesla’s screen.
I do hope they’re disabled when driving…
Just rented a Tesla on holiday. None of it works while driving.
Have to say though I do like the car!
You love to see it! Stand with trans folks ❤️
They should add Mastodon integration instead.
No one will make money from that, so they’re not going to do it.
