Why add this without any source lol?
Things like the leftie Palestine protests and the news streamer Hasanabi extensively get news from and use Twitter.
- filoleg 2y agoMy good faith take on it is that it might indeed be the case in Denmark (which is where the grandparent comment user is from). Though Denmark’s twitter culture/userbase breakdown doesn’t seem likely to to me as being representative of the larger twitter. And also, I totally agree with you that this is definitely not so clear-cut in the case of North America and Japan (aka the two largest countries on Twitter/X by their userbase).
