“Behaving well on Twitter” is the key phrase.
People may be downvoting you because you do not decide what good behavior is, especially not for millions of grown adults. And neither does an unelected body of moderators on Twitter.
Nor do you get to decide who are bad actors/evil, as we have seen that “bad actor” might just mean someone you disagree with.
- metadat 4y agoAh, I understand now. Thank you sn0w. My definition of "good behavior" is not misconstruing, warping, and manipulating messages to fit one's own desired narrative and agenda at the cost of the greater public good. Can we agree here that pizza gate wasn't a good thing? And just yesterday the current Whitehouse administration deleted the message about how awesome they are for the social security increase after the crowd attached the add-on message pointing out it's due to epic levels of inflation. Misinformation is real and has been weaponized by all sides to great effect. No specific political affiliation is innocent, and collectively this does great harms and threatens everyone. Like I said, a mess.
