We should keep them all trapped on twitter forever.

It's a good containment zone for the trash.

If you see someone supporting Trump tell them to go back to twitter and block them

They are slowly leaking into lemmy.world, my friends living in .world please try your best to hold your position there. Don't let them break through

Just had to block someone that said wanting a democracy and not supporting a dictatorship was "Chasing perfection at the cost of the good".

That's wild given a dictatorship has the whole issue of succession, even with a perfectly benevolent leader they gonna die one day.

Whenever beating up fascists and their sympathizers is a question the answer is always yes >:3
