This is Not news for queer* people.

I am in this instance using “Queer” to mean an umbrella for all who are othered by society.

I’m telling you that people with lifelong chronic disability, people who are sex workers, and people who are dispropotionately targeted by the law enforcement or the state, AND disenfranchised casually in everyday society because of their appearance and/or melanin levels…All have networks of contacts they have relied on for over a decade in many cases.

It was easy for me to get off Twitter but for a lot of people I care about, it’d mean severing so many important bonds…and I just thought this sentiment is something that someone reading might apply too, as well

I mean, yeah, that’s true… On the basis that it’s the worst social media platform for… Anything at all.

Social media is what you make of it.
