I'm going to assume good faith on your part with this question.

This hashtag was used, almost exclusively, by people discussing the chants of "Hang Mike Pence" last week at the Capitol.

When I clicked on it, the page was full of Tweets don't fall inline with your claim, but maybe we all see a different Twitter according to "personalization" :)

Again, without wishing to assume bad faith on your part, I find this very hard to believe.

If this was so prevalent, there would be many screenshots of the offending tweets used to prove that this hashtag was actually being used for making threats against Mike Pence.

Instead, all I have seen are screenshots of tweets discussing the chants made by the mobs who stormed the Capitol last week, as well as many tweets asking why this hashtag was there.

If can share some screenshots of a "page full of Tweets", or link to some evidence, then I will gladly take that onboard.

Yeah I've seen a lot of breakdown of good faith from both sides recently. I wonder if it's even fixable. It seems to be related to the modern commoditization of socialization. With a close friend, honesty is best, but with a stranger, pulling a fast one seems more attractive.

> Ahh see. There's your issue. Assuming these people are arguing in good faith.
