Get the HELL off of social media! Starve the damn beast. They’ve cowed you all into this mindset that you need social media to “stay in touch.” No you don’t! Think back to how you connected before the Internet, and stop with the whiny, crybaby BS. Social media is a cancer. You keep going back to it like it’s this warm blanket.

At his twitter doesn’t make any money. With a basic adblocker I never see any ads. I follow a few news sites and space stuff, that’s it.

Interestingly enough, they are planning on making it pay-per-view. Somehow they think people will be to sub, basically turning it into an OnlyFans.com clone (Avoid that place at all costs too).

Problem is there’s a lot of simps out there that will probably go ahead and give some money for tweets. Talk about the bottom of the barrel.

Social media has its uses. For example, I keep in touch with my fraternity brothers from the late 1970s. We have a FaceBook group and have virtual meet-ups because we are all scattered across the country. The most important lesson I learned from being in a fraternity was that we did not have to agree on everything to live together in community. We learned to listen to one another and come to a consensus. When we had to reach a consensus, we followed Robert's Rules of Order and would listen to pro and con arguments until there were only thoughts from one side. The we voted and moved on. It really works.

The thing is, if they don’t find any social media presence, they will assume it’s because you are a conservative.

No social media presence is also a big red flag.

Ok I’ll bite. Will you pay the very expensive international phone bills I will have to stay in contact with my family and friends once I exit social media?
