In the space of 24 hours, Twitter went from being my home for the last six years to being a place like 4chan and telegram where I monitor violent extremism. I left Twitter because those two things don't mix well.
Elon Musk's Twitter hellscape. And ours. This weekend the guardrails truly came down. https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/elon-musk-s-twitter-hellscape-ours-n1300398
@jjmacnab happy to find you! we need voices like you. I’ve been settling in & retraining myself to source my news in other ways & seek out good ppl here. Loving life w/out bots and trolls
@jjmacnab These things must keep you very busy, sadly. I take some solace that Lula won in Brazil. Assuming bolsonaro actually steps down.
@jjmacnab glad to see you here! I'm still on Twitter but that's because so much of the science fiction and fantasy small press and indie world communicates there.
@jjmacnab His tweet to Hillary made my mind up. I left and haven’t looked back. I’m glad though. I like it here.
@jjmacnab hi! Really glad to see you here! ❤️
Twitter turned into a hellscape of trolls, bots and disinformation just in time for the midterms, too.
Not coincidence.
@jjmacnab grateful to have you here. Your analysis on Twitter had helped me to understand the continued evolution of extremist in the US.
@jjmacnab Remarkable, isn't it? So long to build, so fast to fall. 13 years, left in a week. 🏃
