OMG THIS

My ability to get folx, who’d normally dismiss me as just another “angry Black woman”, to start paying attention to the harm they’re inflicted at scale is 100% the result of how this platform used to work

I’ve been on others for years and they don’t come close

@KimCrayton1 I remember reading interviews with politicians here back in 2018, and prompted by a question about social networks, almost all of them talked about how much they hated or feared being on Twitter. Some of it was the understandable reticence to be exposed to stalkers and death threats, but mostly it was the feeling that they weren't being treated according to their perceived superior status.
