I don't know (not sure who runs that account), but what part of that statement do you disagree with? Watching sports is bread and circuses. It pacifies men and keeps them from getting too rowdy outside the arena. Same thing with porn. I'm not a traditionalist who thinks you can't be allowed to have those things or other forms of entertainment, but recognize what it's doing to you.
If you're going to say something about feminism destroying us, don't obsess over the "x is why z" construction. There can be multiple reasons that men are weak. Focus on improving that so we can fight back.
Edit: I wrote this before seeing your comment.
The problem isn't the statement itself, it's the context around it. This is a Twitter account made by Gab to promote Gab. And the person running this account couldn't hide their power level. You can be racist, you can be sexist, you can be anti semitic but the moment you post dumb shit like this you lose your credibility.
Posting something like this as a normie is fine. Posting something like this as an official account is stupid. If this keeps happening it's going to hinder Gabs growth.
Scaring off some of the normies is a positive. Twitter's power come from the fact that it is how the current elite organize. Gab is for an alternative elite.
Right now, Gab has almost no normie content. Everyone on there is at least somewhat political. You can't have alt tech when it's like that because why would anyone use it?
There is nothing that's not "somewhat political" these days. Oscars are political, "comedy" is political, Disney is political.
because you don't get banned for calling people who act life faggots faggots and saying you don't want to live around blacks and that trannies belong in a nuthouse and that women are retarded and shouldn't vote and that the names of the people who own media companies have something in common
You answered your own question. The aspirational political elite will use it.
It really just proves that Twitter itself is not the problem. The Twitter model of social media is the problem, and it's just as cancerous on Gab as it is on Twitter.
No, the Twitter model isn't the problem here. It's the user.
I disagree. The Twitter model encourages users, official company accounts or not, to spout exactly this kind of unfiltered nonsense.
