My point is that Stephen King is partially responsible for the increase in toxicity. Instead of being the change he wanted to see, he just made the platform worse in the exact way he was complaining about.
He comes off as a hypocrite and it isn't a good look for him. If you think toxicity is bad and is ruining the platform then don't be toxic.
- tim333 2y agoI didn't think he was so bad though I guess toxicity is in the eye of the beholder. He mostly slagged Trump / the republican party.
- ImJamal 2y agoSo being toxic against Trump doesn't count as being toxic? If you like that sort of argument then I guess you could say Trump's twitter statements were not bad since he mostly slagged people who opposed him / the democratic party.
- tim333 2y agoI figure leading political figures are fair game to criticize.
- ImJamal 2y agoNobody is denying that it isn't "fair game". The problem is that it wasn't just run of the mill criticism, he was being toxic. Some of his posts were just profanity ridden rants. If this was a guy criticizing the democratic party or Obama or whoever you would think he was some delusional right wing nut job.
