And yet, even if Twitter were just reduced to just the far-right, that would still leave an audience in the millions. You greatly underestimate how powerful even those few millions would still be.
It is certainly possible that I underestimate power of far righters but sadly this hypothesis will not be put to test. I very much doubt that masses will leave Twitter.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
