Twitter was a thing because celebrities won't text at you directly.
Not that texting can't be toxic and social, though. Whatsapp groups are a major vector of far right radicalization, among other super shady stuff. All social media was a mistake.
They weren't a mistake. They were deliberate and calculated. They came to us with lies and fake gifts, but ultimately offered only serfdom.
