I gradually realized that the medium with which you engage subtly shapes your way of thinking and acting. Twitter makes you act like a coquettish teenage girl. That's who it's for. Clicking the little heart button is extremely gay. If you step back and see how unmanly it is, it's astonishing. It's not even truly feminine, it's too childish

They’ve moaned on and on about every other site that came and went, gaia, livejournal, tumblr, Twitter, myspace, Facebook, instagram, reddit, tiktok, etc. they’re extremely jealous and hateful people. They come from high school and are used to the divisions of tables and cliques.

the crazy thing is how culturally relevant twitter seems to be and how few people there actually are posting on twitter.
Any topic or news item, you will know how the twitter gestalt feels about it shortly. Twitter is content for other social media sites, they even report on big tweets on the local news. Twitter has defined the democratic agenda and affected workplace and student culture. Fucking crazy considering it's supposed to be a percentage of a percent of the population.
Social media, all of it, needs to be destroyed.

tribalism, basically. See pic related, you draw a line and faggots will fight over which side of the line is better

90% of people in 4chan are faggots, there are 10% of them who are okay
90% of twitter users are faggots, there are 10% of them who are okay
90% of reddit users are faggots, there are 10% of them who are okay

But 4chan users think Reddit users are faggots, Reddit users think Twitter users are faggots, Twitter users think everyone is a faggot. Understanding other people takes a certain level of intelligence that most neurotypicals here don't have.

You can't just visit one website, unfortunately. It's either going balls deep into social media or staying out. If you can afford the tax of not knowing what is THE RECENT THING I would suggest staying away from ALL social media. Twitter, 4chan, all of it. Don't even check Youtube commentaries.

that's just gametheory 101. the design shapes the meta. twitter is very good for quick short announcements. news can circulate and unprecedented speeds. if you're a business or news outlet, then twitter is very positive. but from an individual user perspective, twitter is essencially a glorified gossip hall. and who gossips the most? that's right, teenage girls.
>>20453019
4chan creates a safe enviroment for individual growth. people value the truth inherently. the only reason why people hide their thoughts in public is because they get punished for them. anonymity allows people to make mistakes and be wrong and as a result of that, people can be criticised and learn from those mistakes. the consequence of that is that 4chan has a userbase with a significantly above average IQ compared to other social media.
remember, you can't be bullied if you're anonymous. people arguing that we need ID confirmation to reduce online bullying have literal braindamage. associating your online identity with your real life identity, results in making you a target in real life. online bullying does not exist if your ID is anonymous.

That’s what I like about it. Twitter is a completely level playing field. You have direct access to anyone you want. There is no distinction between anonymous accounts and world leaders, no friend requests, you don’t even need to be following someone to reply to their posts. I hate what the centralisation of information has done to the internet, but at least twitter has created an open world experience where some guy with a furry sonic OC profile picture can ratio Barack Obama. It’s really like an rpg where the verified characters are the NPC’s who drive the narrative, but you can select whatever build you want to participate in the story and shitpost.

No, I agree with that part. I meant level playing field in that you are free to talk to anyone you want at any time. The celebrities have all the influence, but you can still interact with them and become part of the pantheon in your particular twitter ghetto if you successfully bait them into responding or ratio them, which isn’t possible in other social networks.

Completely wrong and I expect as much from a braindead twitter user. 4chan users prefer 4chan specifically because they dislike divisions and tables and cliques. Anonymous is anonymous, there are no social cues here just ideas. On those sites it's all about the numbers, the social alliances, the infighting, real life but on the computer. 4chan may have retards too but it's still better than all that shit.

It's full of pretentious platitudes and circle-jerky "preaching to the choir" posts. Twitter posters commonly like to delude themselves into thinking they are posting profound aphorisms but it's mostly dreck. The character limit is stupefying and it's a horrible medium for in depth discussion. Asinine political contextualization to everything too. Posts are very scarce when it comes to veracity or credibility.
