Anarchist @GwylAnarchaidd falsely accuses non-liberal anti-Zionists, who use the mushroom hat (toadstool’s cap) in their pfps, of being crypto-Nazis.

In fact, the toadstool’s cap refers to the «Ленин — гриб» (Lenin is a mushroom) joke

      There are so many layers of tweets, quote tweets and replies that I don’t know what’s going on.

      This was a large part of my experience when I was on twitter and one of my favorite reasons for being glad I’m not on there anymore.

      Here’s a dispute that you should totally care about and you’re a POS if you don’t take the right side of it.

      “Cool, what are the details?”

      Just this chain of events that is logistically impossible to follow if you weren’t there for every step it happened.

      “Okay, I’m gonna sit this one out.”

      Then I would feel like a centrist for not taking sides on somebody’s twitter dispute and encouraging people to get along lol. 🫠

      No matter how terminally online I am, there’s always someone onliner.

      Mastodon not supporting quote-toots was the right call.

          It refers to the refers to the «Ленин — гриб» (Lenin is a mushroom) joke

          Quote:

          multimedia artist and countercultural and political activist Sergey Kuryokhin (1954–96) […] claimed that ‘the Russian revolution of October 1917 was made by people who for years had been taking [hallucinogenic] mushrooms. In the process of consumption, these mushrooms altered people’s personalities, so that people [effectively] became mushrooms [themselves]. […] Lenin was a mushroom’.
