    I think of this anytime I see some alleged leftist on Twitter talking about anything as if they were paragons of ethics and morality. It might be a bit of cynicism on my part, but I can’t take it seriously whenever someone can’t take a hint that maybe they shouldn’t be in a platform owned by a Billionaire that makes a point in basing his personality on the fact that he is an imperialist bigot. I wish Twitter had stayed banned in my country…

      How can you see what anyone writes on the platform if you’re not on it? Wouldn’t that by definition mean that you still use it yourself too?

        Because a lot of times other people will share things whenever there’s enough controversy? Often things will also show up on the news? Not that uncommon for things on twitter to show up outside twitter?
