Why do people with 17k followers quote tweet losers with 22 followers? I have never understood this logic. Actually, it makes sense from #LateCapitalism's perspective of 'Angry People Click More' where goal is to have everyone clicking all the time so maybe they'll click an ad. twitter.com/cricketcrocker

Writing Prompt: After an earthquake, you're trapped in rubble, & calling emergency services doesn't work b/c overloaded. You use twitter to call for help, but the only people nearby are those you blocked years earlier b/c they were on a shared block list. Quietly & alone, you die

I wrote a short thread about someone who takes pride in announcing their blocks via quote tweets Maybe you can guess who's being referred to here:

Ever feel like reducing other's agency reduces your uncertainty? See how this works on twitter? You see another's offensive tweet, so you reduce them to 280 characters of agency Then you block, so you'll never see that idea again, thus reducing your uncertainty about the world.

I have 0 problem with blocking people, if they are making your feed worse. Seeing serial blockers performatively huffing about it is the sort of thing that I consider to make my own feed worse, though.
