It takes a hell of a long time to build up connections to get your posts before many eyeballs. Not to mention Likes and Followers.

You can set up an account on an alternative social media site and spend a little time here and there to start building it up.

Besides, resisting the RW attempt to control the narrative can happen here. Harder on a little-known site.

Also, there's always the possibility that the Musk purchase is part of a psyop to elevate the voices of the RW and marginalize those of ours. With Michael Flynn out there, along with Army Reserve Colonel Phil Waldron, I wouldn't be surprised.
