Twitter posting is part of your business. It is not part of mine. I redistribute corporate wealth directly to working families using the courts. You rant while playing video games and build your brand. I'm on Twitter to blow off steam. You're part of the whole dog and pony show.
And don't let anybody ever trash you with this logic. Posting is good. The people you meet, the comradery you build, it's meaningful. And a lot of real stuff begins online. It's a better use of your downtime than playing Fruit Ninja or whatever.
Do not ever look at me, and tell me, that posting is not good.
The irony is that right-wing "lawsuit reform," which has made civil rights and wage theft cases increasingly hard to pursue, was pushed using the same dumb stereotype about dick pills and plaintiff's lawyers that Destiny is trying to insult me with.

Look, I don't want to split hairs but the guy was proposing that right-wing death squads murdering rioters might be a good thing, for political ends. What do you want me to call that? Just give me a word and I'll use it. If it's "liberal," ok, but that seems weird.
Like, I'm sensitive to this "everyone you don't like is a nazi" thing, I get it, but when a guy starts musing about how bona-fide nazis "have his blessing" to start mowing down rioters, it's absurd to have a public scolding about using the term nazi as a form of ridiculing that.
When someone gives their blessing to nazis murdering people in the BLM unrest and I can't say "fuck off with that nazi shit," then what purpose does the word serve? Just put it in a museum. It has no colloquial content.

Being Twitter famous has given me the opportunity to have private conservations with some of the smartest people in the world about this problem, and not one of them has a single coherent idea of what to do.

Most seem to agree the current public vulnerability to misinformation stems from a series of material and psychological deprivations combined with the sudden democratization of information. Too many want to hinder the latter rather than solving the former.
There will be no top-down solution to this problem. You will not legislate your way out. You will not litigate your way out. You will not censor you way out. And any attempt to arbitrate the truth will fail unless you remove those material and psychological deprivations.

You could not be more wrong (which is fine) but your lazy attempt to smear people like me as anti-gay misogynists is just sad at this point. "Libs going to brunch" is quite obviously code for affluent detachment from the life and death politics of the marginalized.
"Back to bunch" describes for how certain segments of the Democratic party are ready to ignore politics completely once Trump is gone, as he is primarily a personal irritant. If they can just reset the clock to 2013, they will be happy.
People who had problems in 2013 and will continue to have problems after 2020 rightly ridicule this attitude. And brunch is a convenient cultural shorthand because it has always been connected to wealth and gentrification. So when these signs became common, it was a natural link.

Tim Pool saw Shell Oil post a black square on Instagram and now he thinks they actually give a fuck about racial justice because he is waaaaaay dumber than you.
Being punk is about respecting the cops and absolutely never throwing a brick through a window under any circumstances.
Being punk is about getting on a bus with a bunch of militia freaks in Call of Duty costumes, driving to a city you don't live in, attacking someone with mace, and getting shot in the face.
