James Woods says goodbye to Twitter, says he's going to go enjoy life

What? We just got him back! And this is after he vowed to sue the DNC when he saw one of his tweets among those that “the Biden team” had intervened to have deleted. We’ve heard people say they’re leaving Twitter before — remember when Keith Olbermann said he wasn’t going to tweet about politics anymore? — so we’re hoping this is just a temporary thing. We don’t know … is life better without social media?

I’ve come to the decision that social media is a collection of echo chambers, and those with the biggest bullhorns are decimating conversations of merit. It’s simply too exhausting to endure honestly.

I have a wonderful life. I’m going to go enjoy it. God bless you all.

That’s too bad, because to us, Twitter is just getting interesting. Citizen journalism finally has a chance to shine with the censors booted out; we expect this is the only place we’ll see certain stories.

We’ll still have his movies, and his movies are great. A James Woods movie marathon might be in order.

God bless you, James.

I get it but this hurts my heart. https://t.co/Qkqf4QSpPU

This is a VIP article, for which I finally signed up, as the most interesting titles were always VIP. Hopefully, it is alright to post this excerpt.

I thought the left was leaving with their hair on fire?

Good for him. He’s not young and is a free man.
He also might return…

He has a problem with trolls because he is a celebrity

I don’t have that problem

Never understood people that get exhausted by social media. It’s up to you to control how much you do from zero to 100 percent of your time.

Even if you choose to post, you don’t have to spend a single second worrying about what people say about it if you don’t want to.

“... you don’t have to spend a single second worrying about what people say about it if you don’t want to.”

I disagree with that for many people.
It’s like saying one can have just one beer.

Well, he didn’t outright say he was leaving Twitter. Maybe he just needs a break.

Whaddayamean? You’re saying I can only have one beer! /s

It’s difficult for celebrities not to care what others think of them. For me, not a problem. I like me, and that’s what is important.

But the Hollywood Court Jesters like Rob Reiner, Mark Ruffalo and others will try to make sure that James Woods career is dead. Bastards!

That’s the same my line of thinking when I post here. I simply state the facts as I see them, even when I know it will be flamed, because I am not running for any office.

I’m cool with me.
“Me” also has no social media accounts, unless you count LinkedIn, and I have never posted a single word on there.

Except nowadays, Radical liberal nutcases will do everything they can to go after you by doxxing and attempting to destroy your life if they decide you need to suffer for your “crimes”

What then?

And, most importantly, you are anonymous.

I used my real name for yrs. Then I searched my name on the web. I could only find 2 other people with the same name. I decided to go anonymous

This is the aspect of social media that perplexes me the most. The whole issue about angry or hateful tweets seem so inconsequential to me. Why in the world would I be offended by words of people that don't even know me? But we have truly become thin skinned throughout the world.

Good for him, I left Twitter when President Trump was oppressed. I had left Facebook long before that. Deleted my accounts on both occasions.

They were both wonderful ideas abused by the United States government and their fascist staff. They’re ruined as far as I am concerned. Trust is earned and they both lost any trust people should have in them.

It will be better if Musk is able to turn Twitter around. It would be better for the world so I doubt they’ll let him do it.
