What could possibly go wrong?

When toxic idiots on Twitter drive everyone off, they'll be the only ones left.

Then they'll turn on each other, harassing bots and trolls who'll scream that nothing's being done because they are being dragged.

Then when only the most toxic are left, and they have no one else to intimidate, harass, or make miserable; they'll leave.

LOL, WHAT?! That's absolutely stupid.

You could see this coming the moment we started blocking blue checkmarks.

Up next, everyone who joins Twitter gets a free king Cobra delivered to them at a random point in the future.

LOL that is probably because I've been blocking Elon's profile for a while now. I'm pretty sure this has to do with his profile being blocked by more and more people.

Well damn, the only way I use twitter is by liberally blocking everything and just getting news from stuff I care about, since there is no other platform like it that everyone uses and updates regularly. They already started pushing stuff to my feed that I don't follow, now they are removing the ability to block and keep my feed clean too? They really are doing everything in their power to make me stop using it huh

Pre Twitter takeover this would have been surprising. Now seems par for the course.

I reckon he's just really really fucking short-sited tbh. He seems to forget that there are people on twitter, or were tbh.

Makes me think he’s actively destroying it purposefully
