      I think of this anytime I see some alleged leftist on Twitter talking about anything as if they were paragons of ethics and morality. It might be a bit of cynicism on my part, but I can’t take it seriously whenever someone can’t take a hint that maybe they shouldn’t be in a platform owned by a Billionaire that makes a point in basing his personality on the fact that he is an imperialist bigot. I wish Twitter had stayed banned in my country…

      Soooooo, like do you design artistic looking wheelchairs? Or do you lay down a big white tarp, roll the wheels through paint, and then roll on the tarp making a painting?

      Either way, I’ve never even THOUGHT that could be a thing, but it seems so cool.

            I don’t know what the actual terminology here is. The display name is “WheelchairArtist” but the underlying account name - the one that shows up in the URL if you go to their profile - is missing the i. I have no idea if that’s a typo on account creation or something intentional.

    I’d like to think it’s because they’re taking a stand but they have to be even more sick of seeing weird American incels talk about US elections than we are in the U.S. Not to mention vote scolds who assume the entire internet is American.

    “I don’t care about the election.”

    “Vote! It’s important!”

    “Motherfucker, I live in Antwerp! Shut up! Just shut up!”

      It’s going to converge with Truth Social eventually and at some point they will just merge.
