@patrick @taylorlorenz Right. And nowadays they are used to create binary narratives and push political agendas.

@taylorlorenz Twitter going down is a huge step forward to getting back to public sanity. It's become ridiculous how politician twitter their personal opinions as if they were the law, bots influencing public (and politicians') opinions. Twitter, Youtube, facebook becoming the ministry of truth, curating and censoring at the will of the rich & powerful. Welcome to 1984. Twitter going down is at least a small step in the right direction. Moving towards decentralization the next.
