Apparently you slept through a fascist dictator rising to power by manipulating desperate people, specifically on social media.
I see what you're saying and you make a good point honestly.
Like the white house, department of homeland security, and others before them, the account will get no traction and be ignored. It is currently working really well on bluesky.
