@WestOfMichael I’d also say that Post and Greenroom can’t really be compared without a note being added that Post is a macro-blogging site designed to appeal to journalists and other content creators, while Spotify is very much trying to slowly build a community around music. Different strokes. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
@WestOfMichael Spotify’s social media function is called Greenroom. That is the thing that just launched. You are not saying people should ditch Twitter, a social media platform, for Spotify itself (a music website that has been around forever), are you? We are comparing apples and apples here. — PolitiTweet.org

@HallidayChad The other thing I think divides those who go to places like Post or Mastodon and those who go to places like Spoutible or CounterSocial is whether you are looking for a UX that essentially is just Twitter without Elon Musk. Some users, and this includes me, do want something new. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
@HallidayChad It is hard because I really prefer Post at this point. Post went through a long beta and is about to update its whole UI—which candidly is what Spoutible should have done because it’s really not ready for primetime yet, in my personal opinion. I think eventually it can get there. — PolitiTweet.org

@WestOfMichael Greenroom you mean? It is on this list. — PolitiTweet.org

@MostellerJeff You have never heard that sort of garbage from me, but you HAVE heard me decry it on the very feed you are commenting on right now What I do NOT do is compare a daily far-right occurrence with a rare left-wing one as though there’s any moral equivalency between MAGA and the left — PolitiTweet.org

@kaeliae I think it’s still 6 months from where it needs to be, but do think with a proper beta period it can get there. At this point I’m finding it very slow and buggy and there are some features I find a bit inelegant and hard to manage. Plus, I want something *different* from Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

In case you missed it, RETRO subscribers now have access to a regularly updated ranking of the Top 100 Twitter-alternative social media sites—plus a few more—with links to each so you can test drive them now. Notes help you find the ones that work for you. https://t.co/lQkYhrLgx2 — PolitiTweet.org

The time to move to Post News is right now. Twitter has already descended into open authoritarianism and white supremacism, and the next step is a richly earned insolvency and bankruptcy proceedings. Elon Musk should be an outcast for the rest of his life. https://t.co/A7KHg0EUiS — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
And because Elon Musk needs his greasy $8/mo., many of the Twitter goblins libelling Fetterman have blue checks next to their names. And this is what we get from Musk in response: a promise that *all working journalists will lose their blue checks* shortly. Why? Because, he says: https://t.co/aW3A8VupjH — PolitiTweet.org

These people are publicly acting like monsters—and I believe it’s consistent with journalism to say so. There is nothing in journalism that requires that monstrous behavior be repositioned as in any way normative. The MAGA GOP is a dangerous anti-American, pro-authoritarian cult. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
So they infantilize Fetterman, lie about NYT reporting because it isn’t vicious enough toward him, slur the Democratic Party, call for Fetterman’s doctor to lose his medical license—and do it all with the misplaced self-righteousness of grown adults who weren’t parented properly. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
Beyond this, these ghouls are concern-trolling Fetterman by saying the Democratic Party—which of course they slur as the “Democrat Party” because they’re f*cking children—risked a helpless Fetterman’s health for a Senate seat, as though the choice to continue his run was not his. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
Fetterman volunteered that in extraordinary situations—rare, stressful ones—aural processing can feel like listening to Peanuts adults. Which is why he’s glad for tablets. Disgusting far-right troglodytes now say he hears random Peanuts voices regularly. These people are so sick. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
The aural processing issues Fetterman is experiencing aren’t uncommon for someone who’s experienced a serious stroke. The Senate has taken the measures necessary to ensure Fetterman can work from a tablet. Far-right *lies* that Fetterman is hearing voices are disgusting bullshit. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
When you see the disgusting lies Republicans are telling about John Fetterman right now, just remember that many of them are part of a death cult. The MAGAs want their enemies to die, and they want them to suffer before they die. Truth and decency mean nothing to them whatsoever. — PolitiTweet.org

All of the D.C. MAGAs are frauds. *All* of them. Exactly how long is it going to take for everyone in America to understand this? The father of MAGA (Donald Trump) is a fraud, and the model he has set is a model that *depends* on fraud. All of this is painfully obvious by now. — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
So now America will have a completely batty understanding of what was happening at the Pentagon and the White House both on January 6, 2021 and in the days and weeks before that horrible, violent day. It's so depressing. In any case, my 2022 book is below. https://t.co/naGMowlzjj — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
And the reason this matters is because the January 6 Committee didn't report on the events discussed in Proof of Coup (2022), but now Miller has a book out that (a) distorts the events of January 6 but also (b) is getting enough major-media coverage to ensure people will read it. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
But then Miller is not honest about the timeline of when he received a request for aid, the chain of command he'd set up for that day—a deliberately impenetrable one that ensured DoD would be straitjacketed—or how he acted on the day. My book contradicts him in every particular. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
So even in *defending* himself, Trump political appointee Miller admits that he and Trump agreed prior to January 6 that the National Guard would not deploy to the Capitol to defend members of Congress but *would* usurp MPD's authority if antifa folks attacked Trump supporters. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
Most notably, Miller affirms that the only presidential directive the Pentagon had was to protect pro-Trump "protestors" if they came under attack from antifa—which (a) none of the intel foresaw, and (b) makes no sense because in *that* scenario MPD would have been the authority. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
This interview was horrifying. I wrote a long book on the Pentagon response to January 6 (2022's Proof of Coup: How the Pentagon Shaped An Insurrection) and everything Chris Miller says here only deepens the encompassing scandal I wrote about in that book. https://t.co/4yPNdcbSVo — PolitiTweet.org
