My guess is they’re not self destructing. They’re pissing off parts of the user base to profit more from the rest of the user base. I’d guess it’s all calculated and profitable. Except whatever twitter is doing that’s just a mess

Their goal wasn’t to win you over. It was to create a loyal user base of ad consumers and they succeeded at that

I also succeeded at finding a platform to consume content that isn’t ad riddled. Yet.

people losing everything for medical expenses is a meme

about 2/3 have medical expenses as a direct cause. That’s about 250k people a year.

The reality is that hyperbole you’re describing affects a small number of people

🤔

How many people go bankrupt to medical debt a year in Canada? It’s less than 250k a year

I could be wrong

My understanding is it has to do with deleted comments not having a placeholder, so the comments you do see look like they’re nested strangely

I believe this sparked the dark brandon name. Originally made by a propagandist cartoonist to make Biden look evil, the left memed it because he’s an old man so the juxtaposition is funny, then libs just adopted it as a cool way to brand Biden
