@Call_Me_Peppermint_Petty once, I thought that what was said on Twitter actually mattered. I even signed up to help with tweet storms, to heighten idea visibility. But then I started looking at my data and realized that most of my tweets were seen by few people. And I was preaching to the choir or arguing with bots or idiots. I am pretty sure that I never convinced a single non-voter to vote, never altered one politician’s stance, affected one corporate policy, or changed one person’s mind.
@Call_Me_Peppermint_Petty indeed. I wised up, ultimately. I spent very little time on the BS since the last election, so locking down my account and deleting the app was painless.
