Noooooo leave them all there. It’s a containment space.
I mean, look, they will always go somewhere, okay? This is the internet, trust me, there’s plenty of places. But that service makes for ideal containment, mainly because Trump is on it and it’s not connected to anything else. It’s perfect. Don’t fucking ruin it.
edit: I mean, you want to shut something down with shitposting, go for the legacy outlets that provide them with a lot of their ideas and shit. Go after daily stormer or something, the older shit. Where a lot of the ideas originate, and the hardcore extremists get radicalized from. Those are more like the brain stem of the thing anyway, where truth social and fox are more like the body, the bulk.
It’s quite the opposite actually. It may be outside of your personal view but what it is is a cesspool of assholes circlejerking and spreading misinformation like wildfire. No pesky liberals to come and break it up with their facts and knowledge.
This is what happens when you kick them off of Twitter.
Everyone who goes there was not vulnerable to being influenced by facts or knowledge. Anyone who values a sound methodology for arriving at those will have stayed well away from the place.
The gateway into that shit isn’t Truth Social. It’s attitudes that attack education spread at the grassroots level, and once adopted, it leads to distrust of any message that coincides with the establishment position.
I mean, you’re right, but destroying it won’t help. They’ll just go somewhere else, worse. You can’t actually “cure” them with facts though, it just doesn’t work that way.
And the people that don’t have values like that formed yet?
