> Part of the unspoken reality of Twitter is that it became an integral part of modern journalism. I think this is true, and it's absolutely horrifying. Nuke it from orbit. Twitter didn't just become toxic with the Elon takeover. It's always been toxic. It's structurally toxic. The net effect of Twitter being the brain of humanity is to prioritize and elevate the dumbest, most divisive, and most emotionally triggering ideas from every part of the ideological landscape and de-prioritize anything deep and intelligent. Trash and rage bait drive engagement. It's like letting trashy daytime TV drive your civilization.
