I'll never understand liberals need to distance themselves from those who disagree with their opinions while simultaneously asking for their vote. You really need to engage and find common ground with those you disagree with to win their vote.
The problem with having reasonable and respectful discourse with people you disagree with, is that you first have to find people willing to have reasonable and respectful discourse. In real life I've met plenty. On Twitter, there are none. They're mostly just in getting a rise out of libs and lefties. We've already been finding that disengaging with them and moving to a platform they don't have influence over has made them a lot more impotent.
Dunno about liberals, but I don't like hanging out at nazi bars.
People have been trying that for years without apparent success. Let's try shunning the antisocial people instead. We didn't defeat the nazis by being nice and friendly to them
Besides, journalists being on twitter is one large reason anyone cares about twitter. Getting people to care about a platform not owned by the first lady might be a good idea
