        All "Chait's gotta chait-ing" aside, it's also just really stupid to do that as a journalist unless you literally want no new sources ever.

        @chrisgeidner I called a certain kind of response garbage. You'd have to be aggressively dense to think I called people garbage.

        @jonathanchait @chrisgeidner Well, I would weigh in but I am not "verified" so I don't count. What a dickhead policy that is.

        @bmaz @jonathanchait Yes, which was my point, as he knows, and the point of the many others who criticized his "verified bubble" policy.

        @chrisgeidner You literally wrote that I called people garbage. If you want to admit that's false, we can agree to disagree on the rest.

        @jonathanchait I also "literally wrote" that you called yourself an asshole. It was clear those weren't your precise words.

        @ChristinaKahrl @Support @twitter It's creating a literal echo chamber, with some pop voices (prolly not in his mentions anyway) at times.
