Hey all, the Auschwitz Museum is here on Mastodon, let's get those follows going.

"Since Trump came into the spotlight, the Right has portrayed itself as victimized by both censorship and left-wing violence while explicitly calling for the mass murder of whole sections of the population, the banning of books, history, and expression, and even pushing for outright dictatorship – while downplaying the real carnage taking place across the country from Buffalo to Colorado Springs. Meanwhile, corporate tech platforms continue to rake in cash from viral far-Right content, pumping out everything from QAnon to COVID-19 conspiracy theories; redirecting legitimate anger against capitalism and the State towards communities that are already on the receiving end of racism, anti-Semitism, and state violence.

We expect Musk to run Twitter into the ground, turning it into yet another far-Right echo-chamber. Masquerading as a “free speech absolutist” while attacking Tesla workers who attempt to unionize and parroting far-Right narratives about “pedophiles” while posing for photos with Ghislaine Maxwell, Musk personifies the hypocrisy of capitalism. Small wonder he finds common cause with those still unwilling to publicly boo him: white supremacists and incel trolls.

Like the Mercers before him and now Kanye West, Musk represents a segment of the billionaire class that is willing to align itself with the fascist-Right. This reflects the outright nihilism that this camp sells to its followers. This is why Musk set his sights on those reporting on grassroots movements as soon as he gained control of Twitter. Musk isn’t here to shake things up, but to preserve his position at the top."
