Like, idk. Is that level of ignorance not absolutely bleak for everyone else
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
literally designed to cause psychic damage because it drives engagement
:sadness-abysmal:
twitter isjnt real life its just a heightened version of it thats always shittier
Same. Straight up said having a mask mandate and limited shut downs was communist <china/russia/etc.>
Most working class people don't live and breath twitter, let alone vote in such polls
A great, great deal of Americans believe that communism=neoliberalism, and that's why they hate it so much.
and at least half of them are communists, whether they realize it yet or not
lol
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.
