Lol, never said I was important. It can be a great source of information and news and I enjoy staying up-to-date on stories big and small. That's the hard part to walk away from. Take 'er down a notch.

I fail to see that as both true nor necessary. Take it up a notch and stop being a bitch.

They seem like they're on the cusp of leaving the shit hole anyways. I highly doubt insulting them will expedite the process.

Yeah if we just wait for the fascists to play nice that will surely work! Fuck half measure coward bullshit. That's for cowards. Are you or OP a coward? Does having a backbone take a backseat to this imaginary internet horseshit?

Who says anything about waiting for fascists to play nice? Fascists don't play nice. This is about convincing people that are not fascists that Twitter has become a Nazi bar and they should leave it.

I hate the liberal focus on civility over action just as much as the next leftist, but just as civility in the face of fascism does not help, blind anger at everyone is also pointless. Insulting people who want to leave but feel locked in will not make them leave. How about we instead point out what a fascist hellhole it has become, and offer alternatives

Sounds like pussyfooting with extra steps.

Okay, I'll speak your language then. Maybe that'll help us improve society...

Go fuck yourself, dipshit
