Mastodon and politics, what do you think? (lemmy.world)

Should politicians use mastodon instead of Twit... sorry... X? What do you think about it? I think if popular people (like politicians) start using fediverse, more people will become interested in this technology. If so, how do you convince them?

Quite precisely. This of course would cause a "bubble", but would also preserve their unhinged posts for the media to highlight.

And if they come to something like mastodon.social, many will mix up human right violations as "just your everyday political opinions", and get the boot, so it's more handier for them, as a party, to curate what the party represents.
