If Elon is true to his word, then twitter will be the best social platform to discuss topics in realtime and listen to different points of view and make our own conclusions. None one can say we have that right now. Facebook, instagram, TikTok are left wing. Truth social, gettr, etc... Are right wing. Where's the "neutral", centric platform? There's none. Twitter could become this platform. I'm not in Truth social but I won't consume any left wing platform either. Twitter is the closest thing to "centric" pov and it's still heavily skewed to left ideologies. The main issue here is that the climate is soo polarized that you can't even discuss anything because if you don't agree 100% with me then you become my enemy. This is one of the reasons on why Hitler rose to power. Don't listen to what the other side is saying even if what they are saying make some sort of sense. They are wrong and they are destroying the world. I,for once, want to believe twitter can be saved and dialogue can come back.

>None one can say we have that right now. Facebook, instagram, TikTok are left wing. Truth social, gettr, etc... Are right wing >Where's the "neutral", centric platform? Are you.. serious? You construct this statement as if Facebook, instagram, tiktok, reddit etc are somehow mandated or left wing by some fake construction.. Truth social, gettr and whatever other bullshit people made are the only ones created for people of some specific viewpoints to go there because they don't understand they are in the vast minority on their views which is why no one wants to hear about their bullshit on the rest of the internet. So maybe you should be asking yourself the simple question: if every neutral platform naturally swings left.. hmm, that couldn't possibly mean because most people are actually more left leaning in this country?

  It is well studied that only a tiny percentage of social media users actually post. The rest just lurk. So posters aren't a good sample size
