I've had a lot of snippy responses about my remarks on why depending on platforms run by the tech oligarchy is a mistake.
But responses like "what are the alternatives?" "It's political censorship!" are chilling.
You cannot defeat an authoritarian oligarchy by complaining or demanding convenience. Authoritarians happily indulge in political censorship. They will use their corrupt grift-buddies to fuck you up. They will gleefully do every unfair thing.
How can you not know this yet?
