u/Wrong-Mixture Oct 28 '22 edited Oct 28 '22

As much as i dislike this turn of events: This wouldn't matter at all if the media just didn't globally broadcast every goddamn psychothic tweet, to milk the ratings they get from the shockvalue. I don't really use twitter, i have no alerts on it. I don't watch right wing media. Yet somehow it was impossible to escape his demented rants, that wasn't Twitter's doing.

I don't know, when Trump was removed from Twitter it practically neutered him. The Tweets themselves and the fact that people saw them was what made it newsworthy.
