      and there are things going on in this platform that are not coded as "abusive" but can be best exemplified as "policing of daily life". To give one example: read the responses when a visible (with some following) WoC shares something nice they've done

      both left and right wing responses about whatever it is she's done is "bad". Bought something new? "why are you consuming? what kind of leftist are you?" or "stfu [racial slur] why aren't you in your place". there is no winning at this.

      this platform, compounded by the toxic notion that we are "brands" and not people has created the dehumanizing idea that regular people are "content providers" and any deviation from whatever niche they were assigned to is met with hostility and policing

      I always use the example of Christmas when someone slipped into my mentions to police the fact that I decorate my home with tacky shit stating I was "everything that's wrong with consuming cheap chinese product". and this was a "leftist" 😭😂

      I deeply regret I didn't screencap that tweet because the fool eventually deleted their account and now only my incredulous response is left but you all should have seen my face when I read that 😂

      these politics are robbing us of joy. Austerity, constant racial violence, removal of any safety net that might have been in place, gender violence. All of it paired with an endless stream of hot takes in favor and against, all ethics flattened in the name of "debate"

      one of the most damaging thing that social media has done for us, collectively, is the idea that human beings = brands. Even worse, the expectation from others that people should "stay on brand" because they want to consume people as entertainment or information sources.

      this is getting disconnected and long but remember back in 2012 or so when the mainstream was taken over by projects to "rebrand feminism"? gawd if I could go back in time and bring my flamethrower with me 😂

      because I see a genealogy of "rebranding feminism" (to what? to be palatable for the center? to be good for whom exactly?) and the appropriation of words like "resistance" to mean political opposition without dismantling structures of power

      but anyway, going back to the beginning of this somewhat disjointed thread: saturation. Maybe Twitter has reached that point? the problem is that there is nothing clearly slated to replace it yet. So we'll see...

      Yup. The joyless part. I miss having joyful convos on Twitter about ice cream, decorating one’s new digs, funny shaped food items etc.
