I periodically intentionally shed clusters of followers to avoid what I years ago termed “Audience Capture” by tweeting fair points that I know unreasonable people will not abide. Whoever is left is usually fair minded. I’m now worried I’m losing followers due to a purge though.

Can anyone else shed light on whether there is a purge on Twitter underway? A mass exodus? Or is it just my usual at a higher than normal level as per the above? Thanks. BTW: I highly recommend shedding those who attempt to steer you off the cliff. It’s well worth the losses...

Twitter said they send out phone number and email checks periodically to accounts and those who do not respond are being locked out. Idk
