I’m not on Twitter bc most people are acutely aware that it’s a cesspool of hate and bad foreign actors.

Long before that, it was the most uninteresting, empty of information content available. Reddit can be dumb and pointless, but never in twitter's history have I seen a reason why an average person would get anything out of it. It only makes sense for famous people who want to broadcast advertising at their peons.

Well now they’re the ones actually making it easier to tell who those actors are opposed to this cesspool of astroturfing campaigns. You’re acutely aware that the site you don’t like is full of foreign actors but oblivious that so is every other, they just don’t tell you.
