 @51e8a3fc same, I do not understand how anyone can put up with it, whether I check out a link I get sent I always end up managing to see something else upsetting or enraging. I'm so glad I left 
 @360b357e exactly! you don't have to be on there for longer than a couple of minutes now before you see one of the worst people on the planet saying the most disgusting things, there's only so much the block button can do (my blocklist was up to 3000+ before i finally just left) 
 @51e8a3fc "support facism by seeing terrible things designed to make you miserable and angry!" Whyyyy are people still there 
 @360b357e especially with the fact that these awful people are now (or soon? not sure if it's come into force yet) getting paid for any engagement and interactions they get for the awful things they say! if you disagree with them (like any decent person should) you can't respond or even view the tweet without it financially benefitting them 
 @51e8a3fc the only slight positive is that the payments are all a big ponzi scheme so at least we can laugh at that
