I wanna get better at not just spurting out my thoughts with fun as the primary objective, and instead figure out how to tweet controversial takes *without* getting ratio'd. Any tips for methods of presenting tough ideas that don't make people mad at you?

i think when you write you don't demonstrate any kind of understanding that you get why people might be mad at you about the idea. nobody likes feeling misunderstood

tbf part of me believes people shouldn't be mad at me, they're unreasonable to be mad, and that i shouldn't try to make them not be mad because their anger is unfounded
