If it wasn’t hurting them they wouldn’t be doing damage control.
- Spez wouldn’t be doing (awful) interviews (going so far as to praise Elon Musk)
- They wouldn’t be publishing whitewashed versions of history
- They wouldn’t be changing the rules to silence dissent
- They wouldn’t be plotting to overthrow protesting mods to install compliant ones
- They wouldn’t be lying about trying to work with devs
- They wouldn’t be preventing people from deleting their old comments/posts
- They wouldn’t be forcing subreddits to reopen
- They wouldn’t be advertising on Facebook for new advertisers
- They wouldn’t be trying to smear Apollo’s developer
- They wouldn’t be posting propaganda notices on new reddit’s homepage
- They wouldn’t be censoring discussion about alternatives like Lemmy and kbin
It’s working, keep it up.
