"Speak up to protect the discourse, or lose it to the drama." I have been embarrassed by the state of academic twitter, which is spiraling to new lows, and this is solid advice. Thank you.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1351571475032059908 …

For sure. Kindness first, especially on a platform where misunderstandings and road rage are more likely to happen. I liked your perspective, as I've tried not to engage with inflammatory conversations and topics. In the long run, it may not be the most productive choice.

Yeah, I avoid those, too, except when it's starts to result in harm because sensible and important stuff starts getting drowned out. And most people cannot keep track of this (why should they) and slowly, the "discourse" gets dominated by what is otherwise a small but loud group.
