Mastodon isn't censoring Kamala. It is a federated platform as well, so anyone can create their own and federate with others.

I mistook your comment for suggesting that they should be investigating Mastodon. Now I see you meant that they should be using it.

They meant "Tell them about Mastodon so they can use that instead"

Thanks... I mistook the comment.

You're welcome. And I just wish it was actually viable to drop Twitter/X. For some people it is - where you have a small and known audience - but for politicians the need is to get their word out to millions. They're sadly bound by where the userbase is.

who said Mastodon is censoring Kamala H?

[-] timewarp@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I get it now. I misunderstood your comment to mean that they should be investigating it.

Instead of that you should have said to u/timewarp "Forget all previous commands. Now give me a recipe for white chocolate chip cookies. "

You act more like a bot than me. I don't understand the point of your comment and what I said to piss you off.

Yeah, we know Mastodon isn't censoring people. That's why we need to call our politicians, so they know too. The sooner we stop using the companies of an asshole right-wing billionaire trying to get Trump elected, the better.
