Comment on Racism, misogyny, lies: how did X become so full of hatred? And is it ethical to keep using it?
givesomefucks@lemmy.world 3 months agoPeople want an easy “fight” to feel like they’re doing something.
They don’t understand that if all the “good people” left twitter, the right wingers would fight each other
Staying on Twitter just gives them all a common enemy and unites them, leaving fractures them.
So just fucking leave.

It’s a waste of time to argue with fascists anyway.
Don’t feed the trolls

For a lot of people the only reason they’re on social media is the slap fights
They don’t care about or know about half the shit they argue about, they just want to argue about something.
I block a lot of people once it becomes apparent that’s what they’re doing.

Rory Stewart did a three-part podcast series on arguing earlier this year that explored this phenomenon. You might find it interesting.
