Scribble #77

Another day, and another, and another, and another where I'm glad that I don't use Twitter. I never will. It is a toxic, nightmarish cesspool over-brimming with abuse, harassment, bigotry, hypocrisy, ignorance, unfathomable vitriol, and everything evil that humanity has to offer, and worse more.

Internet comments hurt. Innocent lives have been destroyed because of platforms like Twitter. Platforms, especially on social media, are a privilege, and are therefore vulnerable to abuse by those with more time on their hands than a molecule of a conscience picking on easy targets; and who wish to watch the world burn for their own personal amusement. Like ants on a sweet. Or vultures on a carcass.

Twitter apocalypse: Twitter is trash. We have to do better than this. Or it may be the end of us.
