      I see it's time for my periodic reminder: Folks, you don't need to fight with every belligerent asshole who comes along on social media. Half the people who show up in your timeline looking for a fight are just shitposters, trolls, bots, trying to ruin your day. 1/

      They do this to disrupt conversation. To prevent consensus. To provoke. Some are doing it at the behest of governments or some political agency. Some are doing it because they're the cockroaches of the internet and they thrive on conflict and chaos. And the other half? 2/

      The virtue signallers, the tone police, the pedants, the Devil's advocates, and the smugly righteous whose self-image depends on their supposed superiority? The ones who arrive in your timeline with insults and arrogance, then insist they just want to have a conversation? 3/

      You don't have to fight with any of these assholes. It's YOUR timeline. Throw them the hell out if they can't behave, if they make you feel angry or bad about yourself or if you just don't like their face. Don't give these rotten miserable fucks any power at all. None. 4/

      Replying to @Stonekettle

      I’ve very much come to like the new “Hide Reply” function of Twitter. The trolls’ responses remain, but they’re not visible to anyone unless that person consciously chooses to unhide the hidden replies. After you hide a reply, Twitter even helpfully asks if you want to block.
