bear with me for a second:

a million reasons, but a big reason the #democrats lost is because the center of gravity for #media has moved to #socialmedia

where the #trolls and #disinfo play. enough dum dums bought the lies

the democrats didn't play that game. because what game can they play in that shit?

it's literally owned by #plutocrats and #fascists

so... how do we fight?

we need our own

and what do we have

#mastodon and the #fediverse

we need to grow like a fucking weed

am i wrong?

@benroyce Actually, the Harris campaign ran a very fast and engaging social campaign on TikTok and Insta - but they didn't own either platform. It was platform ownership (esp with AI, algorithm manipulation & censorship control) than content that determined the social media power play.

@NZedAUS

exactly

we can't play on traditional corporate social media. it's all fascist and plutocrat algorithms

we need our own

mastodon is the closest fit

we need to make it happen

@benroyce @NZedAUS We needed to destroy their platforms and didn't. Biggest fumble of this election cycle was Biden admin not blocking the Twitter sale.
