every time you see a racist/nazi/white supremacist tweet

retweet it except tag companies like apple and amazon it using the @apple . ask them in your retweet if they really want to support a platform that allows this garbage.


I know the idea of retweeting in controversial but its the best way to get a companies attention. they HATE being tagged in a negative way on twitter.

If you absolutely must, just reply with an @. Spreading Nazi propaganda does their work for them.

....if you must help spread Nazi propaganda, perhaps take a screenshot and DM it to the companies. Retweeting greatly helps the original poster and makes it more likely that their tweets show up on users' feeds, hence the reason it's controversial.

Gone Free

Discounts

Of course, the latter includes the former.
Act fast. People let apps go free or discount them to boost ratings, and raise prices right away.
They even list (by color=yellow) which apps have in-app purchases. I avoid those like the plague.
Definitely not free.

No twitter needed at all.
