I quit Twitter for now. I hope to turn this experience from conversation centered on how wrong and terrible everyone is, to something more positive.

@saxis People are wrong and terrible, you are wrong about that, and it is terrible that you would say it!

:) Welcome aboard, its great to have you here.

@freemo oh no I’ve made a huge mistake ;)

@saxis Truth is you will find a lot of asshats willingn to argue here too. But compared to twitter the amount of engaging, valuable, human interactions are much greater. so it atleast makes the shitty people worth dealing with.

@freemo great! It’d be a little sus w/o some argument tbh

@freemo and it would be nothing w/o flame wars

@saxis Flame wars are the whole reason I got into tech :")

@freemo @saxis Tbf I've already been told to off myself and have seen slurs roaming freely.

@freemo @saxis Actually the person insinuating suicide was from eintein.og iirc

@vern

The worst of the worst really. They thrive on just attacking people in the nastiest ways they can conceive

@saxis

@freemo @saxis Do you perhaps know which politics/ideology they perscripe to?

@vern

Clearly a right wing one from what I've seen, but not much beyond that. They mostly just hop on any thread and start throwing out racial slurrs and anything else they can come up with.

@saxis

@freemo @saxis Ah that seems quite in line with my expectations. I'll aim to stay clear :)

Thank you for the heads up!
