it is pretty insane when the front page of twitter looks exactly like /b/ when i was 12. same dumb ass racists posting racist memes. on fuckin twitter. ive never been a big user of twitter but the fact that some billionaire can just buy a platform like that and turn it into something resembling a notoriously racist and fucked up website is a failure of capitalism. nobody should have that sort of power over communication

I have a few sports teams / journalists bookmarked on twitter and it's so funny how they'll post something like a pre-match injury report and all the replies are just like "hottest pussy you've ever seen discount in bio" or "I'm a badass millionaire living the showstopper lifestyle $$$$ retweet this for a chance to win $10k of my fortune" every fucking time lmao. Can't imagine what anything beyond the most mainstream bots are looking like these days

At least on /b/ the vile racists weren't bold enough to post under their real human names
