    I simply do not look at the tweet

    Log off for a bit and remember that Twitter is literally designed to cause psychic damage because it drives engagement

    Seriously, it's not great

    A great, great deal of Americans believe that communism=neoliberalism, and that's why they hate it so much.

    If something getting any number of likes is depressing for you, it’s time to log off. Social media has links to increased rates of depression, self harm, and suicide. Take care of yourself, comrade

    It takes constant effort to keep people stuck in a cult and the influence fades pretty fast once removed. Minecraft Fox/Facebook/Twitter and people's brains will start to re-solidify.

    For now, I just have a hard time getting worried about mamaw and a bunch of bots clicking the buzzword button.

    Pretty sure Twitter's algorithm favors right wing content because it has higher levels of engagement

    remaining hopeful isn't as important as doing what you can. Pessimism of the mind, optimism of the will. lenin thought he would die in exile just a few years before the october revolution happened. then conditions changed and he responded to those changing conditions.

    I'm not on twitter enough to get discouraged like that. But I do hear enough dumb shit in my day to day life to feel doomer-y.
