It’s hard to explain this but Sliwa is a bad leader and a terrible individual—in many ways a harbinger of the violent indecency that plagues America—and yet great at being a New Yorker.

How much do you all spend on groceries? Cuomo freezes a bit. Sliwa goes off on prices. Mamdani agrees things are too expensive.

Q: Do you pay off your credit cards every month or carry debt?

Mamdani: I pay it off

Cuomo: I pay it off

Sliwa, grinning like a goon: I don’t have a credit card. Debit

What was reported in @politico is offensive and very concerning. But I'm also glad that many leaders, including @EliseStefanik and @RepMikeLawler, spoke out strongly and swiftly against these hateful statements. This is what leadership looks like - and is how decency and morality can be modeled.

I’m not relevant enough to be doxxed like this but yeah this is why I finally deactivated my Twitter account after 15 years.

It’s not only a cesspool filled with the worst people alive, but it’s genuinely a danger to your safety at this point — Musk is 100% collaborating with the government.

important note from libcrusher:

Reactivating temporarily to send a warning.
Since I got doxxed, it appears the same doxxing ring has targeted several other users. I learned that they were banned this week, only for Elon to, apparently, personally unban them. I feel obliged to warn everyone about my experience.

It wasn't just my personal information that got published. Someone, somewhere, got my passwords too. For my banking accounts, brokerage accounts, venmo, etc.
Most of which had different and unique passwords. All these attempts started the day i got doxxed, and have sporadically continued since.

If you know anyone who's been doxxed by this group, you need to have them change all their passwords on every website immediately. Ensure 2FA and any other security measures are in place everywhere.
And, wherever possible, document and report it. Frankly, if you're a lefty of any note, do it now too

If anyone was also a victim of this or knows someone who was, there are ways to reach me. I wish I could go into more details right now. But until that time comes, protect yourself.

I will be deactivating in 20 minutes.
Hopefully, that's enough time for the warning to get out.
