This shitposter account I follow sums Twitter up so perfectly using this post from @briannawu (on Twitter)
Pull quote:
“reasonable people are vastly outnumbered on Twitter and quite literally algorithmically suppressed in the name of "engagement" even bringing up this topic is basically just firing off a flare gun so the most terminally online people you have ever imagined can zero right in on you”
I bring it up cos I’m curious to see if Open Social web can avoid this.
@Wraithe @briannawu that shit poster is making a valid point, however Dusty (aka Rusty) is not to be trusted and is a lower rung of a larger disinformation ladder. He has lots of names on Twitter, rustycohl, neuralculture, agencyofchaos, etc... He should not be trusted. The people he associates with have caused real harm to journalists and activists doing good work.

@Lemur @briannawu yeah, I used the term “shitposter” very advisedly.
I think I started following him as @Nc back when it was the “interim President of the US” schtick & then he changed the name to rustycohl.
My general rule of thumb is to rank info coming from an account with joker/Rick Sanchez pp as just below info coming from say, Bobcat Goldwaithe 😂
But a good line is a good line.
Kinda pissed if he was involved in anti-antifa shit, mind, so appreciate the heads up!
