After Elon Musk bought Twitter, declared it a "free speech zone", started letting all the fascists back in and shutting down the Left, there was some understandable online rioting this week, and the predictable calls from America's boutique anarchist media to join an exodus to Mastodon. Oh, how I laughed.
So, late last week, Apple and Google finally got off their goddamn duffs and declared that Twitter would be shut out of the Google Play and Apple App stores if the enabling of fascist hate speech and harassment was allowed to continue. Musk, at his very Muskmost, announced that he would develop his own brand of smartphone whose App Shoppe would allow Twitter.
...which basically leaves Gab and Parler in a spot, when you think about it. Now, you don't have to go to some seedy, fringey fascist social-media site to spew your shit; you can just go to Twitter.
Sometimes these gags draw themselves.
