It can be really interesting when involved in longer threads on a given topic. You can literally watch people's confirmation bias in action, as they work their way down the thread, picking out the tweets that make them feel good about their own viewpoint for RTs/Favs. No debate.

Yes but it can be very unnerving thinking you're just putting an opposing viewpoint only to find you're being pelted with rotten tomatoes and in the middle of a hail of hate - that tends to make me retweet tweets of people I mostly agree with such as yourself.

I think that's quite a sad reflection on our society, actually. Sorry you're made to feel that way Maggie. If ever you want to whisper a viewpoint to me on DM, I'll happily raise it. They can pelt me all day long. And generally do. :)

I was intending to stay off twitter this morning, but then just as I was falling asleep last night, I found this. Even tho my eyes were closing, I couldn't stop reading until I'd finished. Brilliant document Maggie. As compelling to read, as it is damning of the PHSO. Great job!!

Thanks for encouragement, John. Next, The Ombudsman - the book. Then the Musical. LOL. (No, I really am writing the book.)

Never rule out the musical.. let's see how the book goes first!
If that document is anything to go by, I'm sure it'll be a real page-turner.
And I think you were hoping to copy in @CommonsPACAC to your previous tweet. So that's that done. :)1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Approaching 3 years since PHSO declared their own report to be flawed, attending PACAC with full knowledge that your evidence would be part of the discussion & they could barely tell the committee how reports are quashed, let alone actually doing it? What is this utter nonsense?
