Not heated at all, actually. And neither was Andrew, I think?

Nobody say a fu$king word.

I don't know if I necessarily agree with that part. It was always a pretty topical thing to complain about the "dumb bird app" even before Musk's tweenage edgelord energy infected the website. But all things considered, compared to Mark Cyberborg and the way he structured Facebook and Instagram to directly facilitate groupthink and deliberately spread misinformation (cough cough Myanmar genocide cough cough), Jack's team actually seemed to carry with them a kernel of integrity regarding the way they constructed Twitter. Their verification system was so effective, that it actually garnered public trust. They were the only team actually attempting to disseminate accurate Covid 2019 information from sources authenticated by the CDC (please keep all opinions of the CDC off this page. It was just what they believed was the honest standard at the time, and they were trying for that. That is my point. Like before, not making any good or bad statements about it.) And even towards the end there they made a very brazen attempt to fact check viral tweets, no matter how much of a doomed task that might have been from the start. I think they were trying. And I think the people who had a problem with Twitter were unknowingly having a problem with human nature itself. It "devolved" because of our insatiable egos and our constant need to step over one another in conversation. Twitter was simply a place where people were able to express themselves freely and completely, barring genuine hate speech. And that was enough of a problem, because, and no one take this personally, people kinda suck!

Did we just get boomed ???????

Thank the weather gods and the 00z for distracting us and saving us from what was about to be a heated political discussion leading to some bans and deleted comments. Close call.
