If the Twitter/X thing teaches you one thing, let it be this: Twitter was a neoliberal place. Then Elon Musk made it into X, a fascist place. Once again, neoliberalism laid the foundations of fascism. But that’s not the (whole) lesson… Neoliberal folks are still using X, calling it Twitter to make themselves feel better, and pining for the good old days. And there’s the real lesson: When neoliberalism turns into fascism, neoliberals will adapt to life under fascism. Right, class dismissed.

That works
If its any consolation it appears the lemmy hivemind understood your reasoning lol
It seems the hivemind caught onto the multilayered irony of a self-proclaimed “hippie” (an offensive term, originally) who allegedly vikes, frothing at semantics of a derogatory term’s classification rather than listening to reason and facts as presented, and repeatedly, no less. One might even, were they less classy than I, wonder whether this so-called long-haired anti-war unpatriotic xenophobe slaver was pantomiming “retarded”. 🤔
