> I saw an article that included a quote from a current or former Twitter employee saying that "the world needs twitter now more than ever" and I think I may have started to throw up in my mouth a little bit. Social media has, I believe, been a net negative for the world. The echo chamber it creates is too strong, pushing people into more and more extreme worldviews. There is no more honest dialog, no more meeting of the minds. There is "us" and "them", and "them" is often seen as less than human. If Elon does destroy Twitter, it might be the single greatest contribution to humanity he ever makes.
