The Twittering Will Continue Long After Trump

The machine that it is, the algorithms that increase or promote a certain kind of virality, is anathema to decent discourse. [1]

Witness:

Not the best comment, but the liberal twitter mocked the whole "second-hand" experience, as if families don't have their own lived through trauma and histories? Yeah, some of it can be mythological and that aspect can be countered, but not crap like this. 

Again, the discourse it pretty bad out there. And that means on the left or the right (the right being much much worse, of course, because even this doesn't compare to QAnon).

[1] Yeah, I know, First World problems as there are real deadly consequences to social media elsewhere (and to be fair, given the increase in suicides, here as well).
