The correct way to use political Twitter is to follow a wide swath of people from the whole political spectrum, including ones you dislike, and gradually realize that 90% of online controversies are functionally the exact same thing with the roles switched around.

actually the correct way to use it is to follow people who are funny and make good jokes, because we could all use a little chuckle in these trying times

Imagine being "involved" in political groups on twitter and stuff, like you take it seriously and poo poo lmfao. Like you're just elevated to hysterics all the time pumping out incredibly long tweet chains lamenting some event or another thinking anyone will actually read your tweet chains and also retweeting people doing the exact same as you, and also you feel strong emotions about all of this as its happening like someone laughing at you on twitter or SA while you're doing this is basically the same thing emotionally as someone making GBS threads on your welcome mat IRL like you're really mad haha

Yeah. The "keep it civil" and "don't get out of hand" is referring to hurting lefty D&D feels.

Someone would make fun of some democrat/lefty thing and there would be 3 pages of hillbots posting angrily so the mods were able to close the thread because it "wasn't on topic anymore".

if you say the words "virtue signalling" like that, it really just sounds like you're trying to demonize people who are trying to be decent people. Obviously twitter warriors launching into a tweet chain are failing at that, but their failings aren't with their attempt to be virtuous, but with the unabashed vanity and ego with which they employ so much of their time into putting on display in a medium that's explicitly hostile to meaningful thought and expression.

There's nothing wrong with trying to be a good person, and there's nothing wrong with condemning people who shun such things in favor of their own vanity and john galt delusions.

Jesus Christ. They got rid of the two towers but still kept the giant arrow-plane. However, did you know Onward Together is an anagram of BOTH 'Egad! North Tower!' AND 'Dang! Other Tower!'?? :tinfoil: :911: :tinfoil:

It can also spell her policy plans: 'Go Red, then to war', or her goal of becoming a 'Three ton war God' :aaa:

But at least they made the giant arrow the thing you'd fire out of a ballista at Syria moving to the right much like her policies blue this time.

Well when you type stuff the cursor moves to the right so I think that's generally considered forward.

But there is only so far you can go to the right before you finally jump all the way back to the left. :smug:

the trump lol thread is currently amazing because even though the trump administration can't function neither can the news media and despite having plenty of garbage straight from the horse's mouth they still aren't utilizing it and instead posting nothing but made up, postured, framed bullshit that is even more fake than white house press reports about trump's incredible health and people are eating it up

this tweet from a CNN correspondent will surely be the death knell of the trump administration

this washington post article isn't a half assed blog post from a joke publication, its serious business

I stopped using twitter because I think the whole thing with trying to get likes and retweets and posting all the inane day to day stuff you encounter like the world revolves around you essentially turns people into narcissistic psychopaths

If you try to do good things for a pat on the back or approval, you're doing them for the wrong reason. An act of kindness is reward enough in and of itself, and doesn't need to be shouted to the world to seek validation from others.
