"First, they came for the transgender, and I spoke out immediately even though I'm straight and cis because I've read the rest of the fucking poem." – Patrick Tomlinson on Twitter

@ravenonthill Does it matter where somebody said it? If Patrick wrote this on the toilet, would you write:

- Patrick Tonlinson on the toilet

@vegafjordo it’s part of a citation. When I cite a book, I include the publisher.

@ravenonthill But twitter isnt a publisher. Its a society. It is a place where people recides and connects with each other. Twitter isnt a book, its a place.

Because the web isnt a book of pages. Its a world of societies. Or a world of places.

To treat twitter as a book is butchering our understanding of
how the internet operates.
