The Babylon Bee - whom I'm not really fan of - as a) I don't really think much they put out is funny or clever and b) they are a right-wing christian satire website (not my wing, nor my religion) - suspended by twitter for making a satire tweet about transgender Biden administration official Rachel Levine- being Man of the Year. Twitter says they will re-instate the account when Babylon Bee deletes the tweet. Babylon Bee says they are dying on the hill, and won't delete the tweet. Good for them. 

F**k twitter. Seriously.

for real lol. I don't know why these companies were given legal immunity from lawsuits if they weren't going to you know- actually use it. The censorship crap they're doing has really just appeared all of sudden- really in just the last 4-5 years (post-Trump winning an election). Seems like Trump won- broke every "liberal" or democrat brain in America and then they decide to go nuclear with the censorship. Twitter is a joke- they're going to censor this and then meanwhile they happily let pornstars and onlyfans whores post pics and videos all day long spreading their assholes and taking you know-what shots to the face. And this is what they censor. Makes no sense.

Twitter can actually be useful in finding out breaking news/info fast. FB is pretty much useless except for advertising products and services and selling crap on their market place.

Twitter is a cesspool. Facebook is aggravating. I don't partake of either.

I don't either. I've never actually posted/used either platform. But I have found Twitter to be pretty great at finding out breaking info fast and links to article from news sites when following journalists/thinkers. It's pretty handy. There just happens to be a lot of dickface retards on there unfortunately.

Facebook - I've only ever used to run ads (paid someone to do that, haven't actually done it myself) and I've actually sold some stuff off their marketplace. Cabinets for $26k, a gas range for $6k, and another set of cabinets for $8k- all showroom display stuff and not sure I'd have been able to sell any of that crap without it.

I like Facebook.  Makes it super-quick and easy to stay in touch with relatives, show them pictures of the kids, etc.-- without having to spend hours on the phone or writing letters.

It's easy to tune out the BS.  I'm actually amused by it.

Almost as amused as I am by people on internet message boards that think they're going to change someone else's mind by arguing incessantly with them.
