Opting out of using twitter is a whole lot easier to do than moving to a different country, try again

It's really hard to see this as different from concern trolling at this point.

On the contrary, amemorablename has his eyes well placed.

If you have questions regarding why telling people to leave twitter, even though there is no comparable alternative, is a moralist argument; you can always make them and free yourself from doubt.

There don't need to be "comparable alternatives", people organized and communicated before Twitter and will do so after, alternatives become comparable exactly by people using them instead of Twitter, quit making excuses for lazy bullshit

You do need "comparable alternatives" and there was nothing similar to Twitter before. That's why even gov't, scientists and comrades use it to broadcast information and refuse to leave.

I think the real lazy(and moralist person if I may add) is you. Follow your own advice and quit it.

You could have actually engaged with what I have written(which is basically what Conselheiro and Amemorablename have eloquently expressed in this thread) and turned this into a productive conversation. However, to my surprise, you have proven incapable of escaping from moralist arguments or boring one liner sentences and decided to troll like a 12 year old.

Truly disappointing. Hope that you could soon grow up. Peace out...
