Join Twexit!
In this video, I run down the reasons why I am deleting my Twitter profile on September 8, Our Lady’s birthday. Because enough is enough.
TOPICS COVERED
- Why Twitter as a platform is not conducive to evangelization
- Marshall McLuhan’s famous maxim “the medium is the message” is an indictment of Twitter as a mode of communication and exchange
- Twitter is designed for maximum addictive quality
- Twitter amps up the rage and blunts the intellect
- There is no middle ground of rational discourse on Twitter, only “love you” (hero-worships) and “*uck you” of the toxic extremes
- Talking about the Christian faith is virtually impossible in such a character-limited environment
- Twitter is a time vampire on many levels
- Twitter executives lie about shadow banning (they do it) and anti-conservative bias (they have it)
RESOURCES MENTIONED
- Tim Pool absolutely owning Jack Dorsey, Twitter CEO, and his lawyer Vijaya Gadde on the Joe Rogan Podcast. Watch video.
- Leaving On a Jet Plane by John Denver lyrics:
All my bags are packed
I’m ready to go
I’m standin’ here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin’
It’s early morn
The taxi’s waitin’
He’s blowin’ his horn
Already I’m so lonesome
I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
‘Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
There’s so many times I’ve let you down
So many times I’ve played around
I tell you now, they don’t mean a thing
Every place I go, I’ll think of you
Every song I sing, I’ll sing for you
When I come back, I’ll bring your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
‘Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet…
