      that is the meaning, but it’s just a turn of phrase. It implies the writer knows the site is terrible but has found entertainment there anyway.

      Similar to “wild horses couldn’t drag me away” or “I was transfixed”

        I enjoy Twitter because it’s a place I can say anything I want to the traitors that abound there

        I’m done with IRL fistfights and live in Maga country, so it can be therapeutic at times.

          they are literally an elite overclass who own basically everything lmao, why do you act as if it’s strange to expect them to manipulate things?

            There’s manipulating things and then there’s seeing one tweet that isn’t a negative criticism of twitter and attributing it to a possible PR conspiracy lol.
