Whenever some politician or party apologist whines about having to stay on twitter because some of our potential voters are on twitter, remind them that probably even more of their potential voters are on pornhub but they are not active there.

He probably just thinks those voters are wankers anyway. -
@etchedpixels yes!
Yesterday at FOSDEM there was a question addressed to Alexandra Geese (a member at the EU parliament from Greens), saying why are not all politicians at fediverse? Her answer was like politicians are saying journalists are there.
LOL! Aren't journalists supposed to be where the politicians are, not the other way around?!
@alvan @etchedpixels no, journalists should physically be where the politicians are and monitoring where the politicians are online, but they should be in their distribution posts where the readers are. And most of their readers have abandoned the Xitter!

@etchedpixels It just goes to show that being on a platform that’s ran by a racist SOB is more socially acceptable than being on a site where people willingly show their sexuality. Seems backwards to me that nazi is less bad than consenting sex work

@davidbcohen @TheBreadmonkey argh now my head is trying to imagine Farage slash fiction, and amusingly autocorrect tried to turn Farage into damage

@drwho yep

@etchedpixels Thank you very much.

@etchedpixels There was a guy teaching Maths on PornHub, so why not politicians explaining what they stand for? (Especially if they have strong opinions on censorship, sex work etc etc)

@alvan @etchedpixels that's the issue with social network - there are network effects.
But saying you're not on fediverse isn't a valid consequence, the only valid consequence is that you can't close your X account until a big majority of journalists are also on the fediverse -

huh. so they admitted out loud that politicians like them are just publicity whores and not thought leaders and legislators/leaders that journalists will naturally want to follow?
