Canary in the Coal Mine: Twitter and the End of Social Media (crimethinc.com)

Crimethinc describing themselves as the ‘canary in the coal mine’ is hilarious. Social media started dying off when people weren’t allowed to voice their valid opinions. Those people were conservative, or more accurately not far-left enough. The real canary was likely the deplatforming of a sitting President for nonsensical reasons.

Crimethinc was instrumental in building the shitshow that we see today. Save your tears.
