Ok... but his thing can actually happen... your version of the bad things that can happen for still also posting news to twitter is all imaginary stuff that doesn't happen in real life. Being upset about the direction Twitter and Reddit took and are taking is a totally valid, and honestly the objectively correct position to have about it. But adding in imaginary penalties for using it is not.

I can tell you firsthand that companies are lowering their ad buys on and generally pulling away from Twitter. It is not 2015. You are not going to lose your house if you lose Twitter. It is over dramatic. What I said is not dramatic. How on earth you were defending people sticking with that sinking ship is beyond me. It is a right wing mouthpiece that becomes more impossible operate safely on every week. When you block people they see your posts and can comment all over your stuff now slandering you you just can’t see it. How on earth people want to live with that is beyond me.

The sheer number of journalists and media outlets abandoning the platform is about as big of a canary in the coal mine as you’re going to get.
