The most tragic thing about this is the effort that it now takes to listen to the other side. Each post is on a different network. People won't be faced with the other side's message because they literally don't have the app to do it installed on their phones.

I've seen everything Trump posts on Truth Social despite never having installed the app.

I also don't have Twitter but I see a lot of those, too.

I have neither app installed on my phone and I've never felt better.

Maybe don't ban people for opposing views and actually have the spine to have your views challenged.

Echo chambers are brain damage generators

That only works when everyone is participating in good faith.

Call it tragedy of the commons or sealioning, but the unfortunate reality is a lot of online “discourse” is only interested in distracting, confusing, and exhausting you.

also the paradox of tolerance

Today on "treating online social interactions the same way you'd treat in person interactions is censoring conservatives!"

Nothing narcissists hate more than when you realize you don't actually have to keep dealing with them and their shit.

Which harmless opposing view got Trump banned?

It took a bit more than opposing views but sure
