 A lot of people on Nostr idolize people like Jack only because their natural tendencies to kiss the feet of “celebrity” surfaces like pathetic little puppies. I see it all the time, it was no different on Twitter. 
 Interesting 🧐 I didn’t join Twitter until 2022 so it’s good to hear other viewpoints. 

It’s also obvious to me that one person shouldn’t be held accountable for results of an election. The reading comprehension rates (in USA) combined with amount of voter turnout proves it is a much larger problem. While I don’t think it’s fair that the one with the biggest microphone *should* be heard that’s an issue we must deal with. 

It is easy to blame Twitter or Fox News (or any media) on manipulating humans. 

This takes the human rights out of the equation. The humans who choose to engage with *anything* should have some self-accountability.
