Twitter thread continued:

Sometimes people will say "You made me an anarchist" and like... buddy, I don't even think it matters that I myself am an anarchist.

And I regret that that sort of "we're fighting the good fight" mentality has allowed some of the worst grifters on the platform to flourish by manipulating people's passions for their own weird petty reasons.

I think what I do has a lot of value, I'm just saying that what I perceive that value to BE is a lot different than what I thought a few years ago.

    Finally someone inside the clique calling out all the weird moralism on the internet left. It's honestly unwatchable at times with the holier than thou mentality. Sounds like I'm back in church.

    I mainly read books on my phone nowdays anyways, not like it's made me any less brainwormed lol. Probably more when you start talking about stuff like world systems theory or other things.
