It is utterly beyond my understanding why anyone stays on Twitter.
What is the upside?
Aside from lots of friends/followers haven't left, but mostly it's the same reason I went there in the first place
To be a counter voice to the false and harmful narratives being put across by people that are out to harm others.
Although that can get a bit much.
I guess the death threat I got compromised my enthusiasm to be a counter voice.
Let me know how you feel when it happens to you.
