South African Apartheid ended when I was a child more than 30 years ago, yet here we are with most of the world’s leaders, governments, media, and many many citizens, on a platform owned by the richest Apartheid South African in history now literally bringing apartheid to the USA.

I was just checking in on my local regional government's use of X/Twitter. It looks like they have removed it from their website and their contacts! 👍acrd.bc.ca (cc: @ZebKing)

The X account is still valid and they do post there occasionally but it's definitely not a priority.

They are using their Facebook Page as the only embedded social media on their website and most frequent social activity.. even though if you click on it, Facebook demands that you login.

Aside: When I searched for the account on Google the first hit that came up is their March 21, 2020 tweet that states "Visitors and Tourists urged not to travel to the West Coast until further notice”. Wow... flashback. #Covid19 #covid19bc

If I search again, I get different results every time.

The biggest impediment to moving away from Twitter is that the Emergency services community still use Twitter extensively.

They need to be shown that their tweets are *not* getting to the people they think they are in addition to being nearly invisible to anyone without a Twitter account!

I have now reached the point where if someone says they still use Twitter willingly (ie. not only because they're required by their employer), I instinctively think less of them.

Dear Advertisers, please oh please, take him up on this challenge! Put this asshole right out of business for good.

“What this advertising boycott is going to do is it’s going to kill the company,” he said. “And the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company. It will be documented in great detail.

Asked if the endgame would be that his large following would react against advertisers pulling funds from Twitter with a Bud Light/Target-style boycott against consumer brands, Musk replied, “They already are. Let the chips fall where they may.””

Und noch ein jahr Murks, ähm Musk, und #Twitter ist auf dem niveau, und hat die gleiche funktion wie "Der Stürmer" vor hundert jahren - nur eben in modern und als "social media", für die am lautesten kreischenden ultra-"konservativen" wirrköppe in ihrer monströsen echokammer, die Speer und Goebbels verzückte freudentränen in die augen treiben würden.
Just a little bit of history repeating.

"I strongly believe that news organizations and government agencies must quit cold turkey. Using Twitter is a tacit endorsement of what it has become, and only reaches an increasingly fringe community of users."

I'm usually not a petitions kind of guy. But I think this is important. If you agree, please sign, and more importantly, please share: End government use of Twitter/X for official news and announcements! change.org/p/end-government-us

@DanFox @ivory I’ve been hearing about this upcoming app. I think that ultimately an improved UI and on-boarding experience is what’ll settle this and definitively #EndTwitter. Would love to see Apple and Google build instances into iCloud and Gmail. Zero setup, it’d be game over for Musk.
