Wandered over to the Bird app to do some unfollowing and blocking and such. It's a weird combo of blue checks and big accounts yelling about staying and fighting fascism and accounts posting slurs and creepy memes.
Starting to wonder if they know it's social media and not the beaches of Normandy.

@Cosmichomicide right? My tweets have never once made an impact on whether someone votes nor whom they vote for. Not once. I have gotten rape and death threats there, but I have never changed a single mind.
My postcards to voters might have motivated someone to vote. And my door-to-door canvassing might have gotten someone to vote.
Social media is about conversing and sometimes about venting into the void. It is not about winning political battles.
