The left need to let go of this 'broad church' nonsense if they are ever going to form and maintain a successful political party. The 'broad church' idea stems from a fundamental misunderstanding of human behaviour. /1

Nobody wanted to pay for your exclusive club except all the same rich d*cks already on your increasingly unhinged 'friend' list. Big corps stopped spending money on ads with you. Your crazy monetisation plans will be laughed at by scholars for millennia to come / 9

But as soon as you started changing it, it stopped being the very thing you wanted it for. It stopped being the online market-place and turned into the online fraternity club for billionaires and those rich folk aspiring to be billionaires. Apart from enticing the sororities /8

Even though I know many of them are still on here, it's so much harder to stay in contact with what they're saying because your current algorithms are designed against that. You bought a social media platform because of what it was at that time. A market-place of ideas /7

It was somewhere worth being because all accounts were equal. We all had our say and our tweets were shared fairly, not controlled or completely blocked by algorithms designed to promote specific voices and subdue others. I found 'my people' through twitter, true socialists /6

Plus you must know that absolutely nobody refers to your hell-site as 'X'? You do realise that? It's still and always has been twitter, and regardless of your hostile takeover, many of us still have fond memories of when this used to be somewhere worth being #4+5

Perhaps one or two communication issues, but make no mistake, he is another victim of the Israel lobby - ultimately didn't want violent thugs on the streets of Birmingham and paid the price.

Dear @elonmusk. Thought I'd give you some feedback on what you've done with the place. Not gonna lie, it's not good. Basically you've created a fascist hell-hole where the opinions of good, decent people are hidden and the rantings of aggressive fools are amplified /1

Your site is completely filled with sycophantic losers and weirdos who know little of the real world and spend their time in endless rants or pointless arguments whilst all the interesting, quirky, witty and individualistic people who made twitter so engaging have given up on it

of people who feel their own voice is SO important they are prepared to pay you for the privilege of having an 'accredited account' / account boosting etc. Basically, those prepared to suck your d~~k for their own advantage. That leaves you with a BIG problem. /3

Now, that may well be exactly what you wanted. I don't know. But what I do know is that any forum that lacks diversity of opinion is doomed to die. Without conflict, there is no drama and without drama, there is no entertainment. So basically you've selected a single audience /2

Ma’am I don’t think you understand, you’re talking to a Northern Irish reporter. Our journalists were raised on political chaos, whataboutery, deflection, irate reps, shouty insults. We’re experts in operating successfully in circuses. Your silly outburst is just a Tuesday to us

LEAVITT: Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed? REPORTER: Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably LEAVITT: Oh, ok. So you're a biased reporters with a biased opinion. You're a left-wing hack.

@5Pillarsuk The witch hunt by the pro-'israel' and zionist jewish lobby succeeded. This is yet another example — to every British citizen who dares oppose 'israel': They will hunt you, they will smear you, they will have every MP on their payroll fight against you. They will do everything

Emily Thornberry is talking about international affairs and justice. She talks about "a little thing called democracy." We're all old enough to remember when she supported Labour enabling an ongoing genocide. #BBCAQ

This morning at 6.20 am the Metropolitan Police arrested Dr Rahmeh Aladwan AGAIN. For the fourth time in three months. This has got to stop. We must declare that it is not permissible for the police to arrest people on the whim of genocidal Zionists. #DismantleZionism
