  • I am pro deplatforming.

  • I need to look into the finances more before drawing a conclusion. Not a good look at face value though.

  • let’s see the suit play out, but also concerning

  • don’t know enough about anonym but acquiring an ad-focused company is hardly an indictment

  • they reversed course on the Russia issue so that’s not an issue and should make you feel better. Their reasoning was also legitimate, even so good on them for realizing it was the wrong - if well intentioned - decision.

  • everyone is exploring AI who gives a shit. They’ve hardly forced it down our throats like everyone else.

With all of this in mind i’m down to be critical but this is not enough to warrant the hate.
