People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

Why does it continue to be a surprise?
People talk about it being "difficult" to determine what's real and what's not on the internet... But more and more, it's become clear, that these people just purposely close themself off to reality completely. The real world does not penetrate unless something affects them directly. And even then, they will do everything they can to avoid facing the reality unless it's literally a brown person's fault.
right? how fucking stupid are these people

No, he didn't. That's the problem
