    I've always felt that mass-deleting old tweets is bad practice for purely journalistic reasons (https://medium.com/theyoungturks/should-journalists-really-be-indiscriminately-deleting-their-old-tweets-32896186a68b …) but it also feels like a cave-in to the snitches and scolds who already have way too much power in the current media climate

        But the one bozo won't speak for the tolerant majority. Plus, we shouldn't allow the inevitable bozos to dictate best online practice

        You're deleting history, or at least the public record. I don't think you should be able to do it easily. A few, sure.

        I agreed with this the first time I read it. :) Accountability. Who do you refer to that has too much power? For me it was an attempt to understand why I felt extremely confused and fell into the opposite of working class internationalism but apologism for intl authoritarianism.

        If you mean the Center-R to far right, including Andrew Sullivan, I agree. Also Dem partisans. I think the institutional left media and authoritarians with links to state actors and podcasts have more cultural capital than someone with my views, for sure.

        They have no power. The spin on the day or moment is overly important to how you think reality works. You are wrong.https://twitter.com/jonjonboston/status/1025246638615355392 …

        This is really all about the people who don't have the time to be up to the minute on twitter/media news hype story of the moment or day. They live, they work, they catch up when they can. They call their shot on some principles and excercise their right ot vote.

        Yeah, we aren't all caught up with "the narrative". We are living freely. #MAGA
