IF you absolutely need a tool like Twitter, then switch to Gab. It’s designed for privacy and does not censor - yet, anyway. Also preferred by conservatives and libertarian thinkers, more than lefties.

Using Twitter, Facebook, et. al. always results in a snipefest. Nothing has done more to dumb down America than social media. It encourages people to speak absent critical thought, to read unaccompanied by context. It blinds intellect. It deceives them who see darkness, yet define it as light

Information is falsely called knowledge. Knowledge is misapplied as wisdom.

Postmodernism has revealed the ultimate irony: Never has information been more readily available to the human mind, but instead of an era of light, we find sprouting in our midst a new Dark Ages.

Well said.
