When will people on this platform understand that certain individuals in the sports business don’t care if they’re right or wrong, they just care if they’re heard and when you RT their so-called “take” to strike back or express your outrage you’re doing exactly what they want?
And it’s not just not caring about right or wrong. It’s also not caring about being accurate and, worse, being genuine. I mean, we all know at least 5 of these people off the top of our heads right now.
A major problem with Twitter is we assume someone’s divisive stance is influencing someone who can be influenced. So we, despite knowing any actual metrics of reach other than “followers” (who may not be real) we feel we have to address it. And by doing so...
...we give away a piece of ourselves to the divisiness, dragging us to a level we shouldn’t & rarely used to heed. At any rate, ignore the hot takes when you see it. Rather than lending hot takers your platform by sharing the hot take with a reaction they could care less about.
I think this is the first thread I’ve ever done.
