Are we still entertaining the notion that the man isn't deliberately destroying Twitter? Because it definitely seems conscious and purposeful, and has for a while now IMO.
My theory is that Reddit and twitter are being deliberately killed because they are too good at letting the proletariat self-organize. They don’t want an Arab Spring of the west.
People talk a lot of insurrection but it’s very easy to sit on your ass and say “fuck the establishment” and feel like you’re doing something. When in fact, the platform is the very opiate that stops people from doing anything worthwhile
