I can atleast still voice against Israeli genocide there. I am good for now.

How many people do you think see those tweets, how many minds do you think you have changed, and at what mental cost to yourself?

  • I see other's tweets. I don't think most are being shadowbanned. I am doing fine myself and pretty productive actually.

  • What's the point of these questions? Seems like, "what's the point of dissent if the cards are stacked against you?"

He was begging to go party with someone that spent time in prison for child exploitation.

That in itself should make you hate the dude.

  • Yup. Hate him as person. But he is still net positive with his scientific/engineering contributions, is he not?

    Wasn't Edison an asshole?

    • Maybe, but I personally don't believe whatever engineering contributions (money?) he made outweigh the regressions he's caused elsewhere. I think the world would be better off without him.

    • Dunno, I'd rather have unabused kids than the technological breakthroughs he has contributed to. Anyone being giddy to meet with a convicted pedo is very sus in my books, and deserves no respect, regardless of their prior contributions.

      Children were exploited, and we're doing this net positive analysis on whether he should face the scorn. I'm not having a go at you - it's just frustrating to see very little happening after so much has been exposed, and I think part of it comes from this mindset - 'oh he's a good guy, this is a mistake/misstep' while people that were exploited as children can't even get their justice.

      It's sickening.
