At this point in time, anyone left on the platform formerly known as Twitter, is either a fascist, or at least think that fascism isn't that big a deal.
Bullshit. I have an account on X since it was Twitter. No post, no followed people, no follower. I don't use my timeline. I just use it because many dealers use it as a channel to communicate with customers through DM. I'm a a fascist?
Stats donβt care if you are or arenβt, you are +1 to the equity that Twitter uses to get money through advertisers, which gets funnelled to Elon and his interests, and now Trump. This leads to reducing your overall opportunities through fascism that contribute to you finding comfort in what your dealer is supplying you. Quit hitting yourself.

Not really
That's something I hate in place like these, lately: you're either a good boy if you do what I think it's right or you're an evil fascist if you dare not to follow "the right path". People seem to forget that there are a lot of shades of grey between black and white.

I know a lot of people still on twitter who ate firmly against fascism. I don't know why they're still on there though.
For a lot of marginalized people Twitter was a place to escape to and find like-minded people, I can see how it's hard to make a new place feel as homely. Most of us here left another site because we didn't agree with the leadership so it's a very biased group, "just do the same thing we did". Not everyone is in as privileged of a position though and it might be way harder for them to leave than you can imagine, especially if they're addicted to it.
Because, as an example, some very important services communicate solely through Xitter. Emergency alerts, fire depart, governmental bodies, etc. Do I despise that? Yes. Do I ask them to move? Yes. Are they? Hell no.
