Welcome to Hell, Elon

Is Twitter not dying? The youth don’t care, the elderly don’t care, and those in the middle (late twenties, early forties) are ending their terminally online lives for families, careers, travel, etc.

Twitter is being distilled into a political tool - both side, endlessly crying into the void, appealing to their confirmation biases.

Hop on over to /pol/ to see what unregulated politic speak turns into.

I give it 10 years and it’ll be a ghost town.

Your demographic breakdown is priceless.

I don’t think it’ll be like /pol/ if you mean that it’ll be a right wing monopoly. There are too many leftists for that to happen. There wasn’t a right wing monopoly 10 years ago when Twitter barely had any moderation and people were more conservative. There won’t be one in the future, unless Elon bizarrely goes fascist and bans all the liberals.
