People big enough to have a staffed social media team will stilk have an Xitter account just because it is a viable vector to get news out. They may also have Truth Social account, just because it's there.

I agree with you and I will not let them off the hook. They have no legitimate excuse to be using racist, misogynist, transphobic, homophobic, bigoted right-wing platforms.

Do they also have a stormfront account? Fuck anyone who contributes to fascist owned platforms just because they are there.

I don't mind them having account there. They need to reach people where they are after all. I'm pissed at them for not being on any platform that is not owned by a fascist enabler oligarch at best.

It's funny (scary) how the police and fire department never post to thir own websites about important timely information and updates.

It's in twitter and Facebook. I use neither anymore. Because obvious reasons.

This week, I could only find reference to the smell of natural gas covering half our city via a news site that quoted the FD's twitter.

Great work, guys!
