Hi Jeff! Proud to be a part of Fucktown. I didn't leave Twitter officially so the people I follow will have their number of followers not drop due to me. I'm also taking a wait & see attitude. I can't imagine spending billions on something only to drive it (no pun intended) into the ground. But after just one day, the anti Semitism & racial slurs sent me over the line. Not sure how Elon Russky can be that "intelligent" yet a stupid ass all at the same time. Till something changes I'll be following this, Meidas Touch and all their talking tentacles of info & am back on Fakebook, where there are no problems, just paddleboarding pix, tributes to grandma who died in 1948 & food pix. Looking forward to reading your uncensored takes & hopefully this election will go favorably.
"To those white folks worried about Twitter toxicity. Please, AMERICA has been toxic for Black people for hundreds of years. If they can manage to fight on, survive and thrive despite it, you can deal with ugliness in your timeline."
I'm mostly just on Twitter for the quick take on what’s happening and don’t tweet and don’t reply a lot so I will definitely hang around.
I think EM has backed himself into a corner by becoming a troll hero. From reading people’s replies I think they truly believe that they’re going to be able to say whatever they want and maybe will be enraged if that’s not the case which would be hilarious
