54. Could part of that be that many non-RW people have gone elsewhere?

It is truly an echo chamber now. Many people do not want to give EM an opportunity to make any $ with their usage. I used to enjoy it for immediate access to reporters on the ground, but they're not there anymore. Few want to support EM, and there is no point in trying to engage in any discourse there anymore. The bots just eat real voices up.

I don't sense any lack of awareness about it, here or elsewhere. I hear you saying that Democrats are somehow oblivious to it, but I have seen a massive turning away since EM bought it and even more so since BlueSky started. What makes you think anyone's not paying attention?
