Not here.

I’m not on this platform any more. I don’t support Nazis and don’t engage with people who apologise for them. You can find me on Bluesky.

A reminder: I’m not here any more, follow me somewhere else if you want to stay in touch. Like Substack: .

I'm no longer here. You can find me at Blue Sky @markdavyd.bsky.social or Threads @markdavyd or just about anywhere else by searching for markdavyd. But you won't find me here until this platform rids itself of its plague.

I’m not here. I don’t believe hanging about with nazis is the right thing to do, so I’ve gone to Blue Sky and Threads. Easy to find me, I’m always markdavyd wherever you look. Won’t see replies, this is an automated account only now.

Your daily automated reminder. I'm no longer here. You can find me over here: Any messages you see here are posted from another platform. I don't visit here any more so please don't reply.

Going to try to build the network and connections on threads. You can find me there.

It’s a genuine loss as we have successfully used twitter to build connections with thousands of music fans, and it has been a very successful tool for engaging politicians. But if the politicians are hanging about in a Nazi nightclub, I’m not going to go there to try to find them.

If I was drinking in a pub and a group of twats started chanting ‘Your body, my choice’ I’d leave. I’d also write a Tripadvisor review to avoid the place like the plague. Consider this that review.

I’ve considered this many times in the last three years since Musk began to use the platform to promote regressive ideas and push hatred. The latest tidal wave of unavoidable bigotry really leaves you with only two options; accept it as a normal part of the discourse or leave.

I have demoted my twitter account and will no longer be native posting here except to direct to other platforms.

I’m using other platforms now. If you’d like to stay in touch, try Threads. I'm on Threads as @markdavyd.
