Cory Doctorow is a smart guy, and has some great takes. But he also pays for Xitter Blue (or whatever they call it) so do with that info what you will.
What are you talking about, I don’t see any tick. Are you talking about the big text that says “NONCONSENSUAL BLUE TICK”?
Maybe I am missing something but it kinda looks like Lemmy is engaging once again in a favorite activity, finding reasons why someone is “problematic” whether true or not, because that’s more fun than just engaging in reasonable posting and commenting and letting people be worth listening to sometimes
Like why did 5 people upvote just pure combative nonsense. What did they see in it that led them to say “yeah this resonates with me, fuck this guy for objectively false reasons! I support this message!”
I think it’s because people are taking their frustrations out on whatever seems to make people think something might be on the upswing. Even better, because you can’t necessarily see who upvoted nobody can call them on it.
It’s like the folks who go to see a movie and gush about how awesome it was when you’re sitting around shooting the shit, but the moment they get on the Net they trash it in as many ways as possible.

That’s pretty much the entire Internet these days.
It’s honestly very perplexing to me

It’s just confusing
