Not really a hypothetical though. Its the very reason I kept a non-profit’s account on twitter, and facebook, and instagram, for as long as I did - Because we HAD to in order to effectively hit the mission for the non profit.
I wouldn’t argue with the dude; he’s got a clear case of bad-faith-itis. What you did was bad, so you shouldn’t have done it, but no I won’t tell you how to fix it.
The absolute best you could have done is cross-posted to a Mastodon/Bluesky/whatever account as well, but you can’t just always go around yanking the rug out underneath communities especially if you’re in a position where it’s not just lazy shitposting and worthless commentary.
…that said, you have moved anything you can to being posted somewhere in tandem riiiiiiight?
how am i supposed to give you a better strategy when you’re just giving the vaguest possible “scenario”.
here’s a good strategy:
don’t support nazi’s.
boycott all nazis.
they make money off advertising to users, by being a user, you are financially supporting nazis… stop it.
pretending like the only possible way to communicate with your desired audience is by supporting nazis is uncreative, ineffective, lazy, and destructive… that reasoning is why places like that continue to exist and grow.

sounds lazy, uncreative, and ineffective
What would be the unlazy, creative, and effective strategy?
BTW, remaining where our community members are is very effective at messaging to the community we need to communicate with…
