This issue is the message, not the platform. Should we also stop campaign speeches because Trump expresses intolerant thoughts?

These twits come form itchy fingers, with no thinking ahead.
I suspect that most twits are like that. And this is why so many non-Trumpians are often by apologies.

...there's plenty of quality writing on the platform.

I don't think 'twiting' is a word.

(12,327 posts)9. Twitter is a distribution platform. Like a blog or press release service.
Nothing more. It should be regarded as such. It has its place in modern media.
But as social media? Oh, please. People react to tweets but Ive seen very little engagement and conversation.
