Twitter is already heading that way without Trump. And Trump is bolstered by Twitter. Twitter MADE Trump ffs. I totally get your concern but what is the alternative. Russia has successfully used social media to harm Ukraine as has China with tiktok.

If we were all dead that very much answers your question sparky.

And then I checked your profile. I got it. You refuse to engage in an actual discussion that disagrees with your world view. Be well.

What did I say that was stupid? Enlighten me. I replied to your rhetorical question to illustrate a point: you can answer a question. This is a public platform. If you say something, people have the ability to comment. I exercised that ability. You got butt hurt for some reason.

They already are. Foreign governments. China controls tiktok and Russia seems to run twitter for all intents and purposes.

Well, we'd all be dead as we'd have drowned in it. Unless you're suggesting we could breath banana cream pie, in which case we'd likely not have eyes and use some sort of echo location to "see". Any other questions you'd like a straight answer too (see it's not so hard to answer a question)

Blocked them at this point, so I can't find it on mobile. Whatever. That's fine. Was hoping to find some Ukraine discussions as twitter is a shithole now and instead I just find assholes and little to no Ukraine chatter. So hell or silence. Yay.

Oh yes. Mute someone trying to engage in a polite discourse. I will do you one better. Keep your propaganda for yourself.

I think we need some legislation around these platforms. Twitter, tiktok, Facebook, etal are very very dangerous in the wrong hands. And the populous just isn't smart or educated enough to spot this stuff.

Long story, but commented on a couple of things on me feed and got lectured, then told I was "performing" for my measly 500 followers. Sorry I joined your convo on a public platform. Ffs. First time back here in a couple weeks and get run out of two conversations... and I agreed with them!

Geee China being assholes. Surprise surprise.

Man when did this platform get taken over by gate keeping self-important c*nts? Wtf. Did I miss some big shift here?

It needs to be fixed.

Then how does one say they've never seen this. Syria had days as bad as the month in gaza ffs.

Signal to noise ratio

Holy shit. You are a garbage human. Get fucked.

True, the rocket exploded. But we now have terabytes of data about what happens when you accidentally dump thousands of gallons of burning fuel on microhabitats in the Florida wetlands where the only known members of a bunch of different bird and lizard species have lived for millions of years

Gotta wonder what's gone so wrong. The excuses for this get smaller and smaller every day as access to information increases, but the SNR on the information has all gone to shit.

Have they not been to Syria?

I think I should thank you, but now you've given me more ways to waste my time lol.

If someone follows me (a lot of non-techies) they will see this conversation on their feed. So yes they are in the room with me. Does the world always revolve around iust you or only on Saturdays? (See two can be catty for no fucking reason).

Luckily I haven't stumbled on the multitude then. And I'm okay with it. The default stuff is good enough.

The issue as someone else pointed out is the app being used. There are many, too many. And it's easy to pick the wrong one.

That's just dumb. Yes please spread your illnesses to me, I want to feel like shit... I don't get that mindset. Self defeating machismo.

To you and me and others that understand tech your statement is clear. To non-techies it would not be as clear. I was merely trying to add clarity. The contradiction there is that I disagree with their choices, not your statement.

I wish we would adopt the Japan mask culture. If you're sick wear one, regardless. It does cut down on transmission. Or stay home. I'm tired of that one "warrior" giving the entire office the flu every year.

I am banging that drum daily on Twitter. Now we need a viable tiktok alternative because that's a cancer too.

Just confirming that for anyone who didn't read the quote in detail.

Yup. 100% agreed.
