Trolling Social Media - Omniscient - Jun 13, 2019
I'm recently feeling this urge to troll hard on social media. I'm using Twitter, Youtube, and Instagram more often. And I see these assholes all the time and I wish I could just give them a piece of my mind and call them out for their bullshit.
But I'm worried my accounts will get shut down. My comments removed. I'll get hate replies for my hate comments.
Anyone else feel this way? Like you just want to be an asshole to these fuckheads but the damn rules keep you in check and it feels like your voice is stifled.
I suppose it's Twitter most of the time because I'll see some something in my feed or in Moments that just pisses me off. I gotta click away but I get the feeling of disgust I can't expunge. I wish I could tell these people right on their accounts what twats they are.
Example....
This fucking idiot has a 8m Twitter followers.
https://twitter.com/danielhowell
Why? I don't understand it. He has some shitty ass videos on YT. He's not particularly funny or entertaining. And in Twitter "Moments" he gets a "Basically I'm Gay" share.
Two things I really wanted to say...
1. Who gives a fuck you're gay?
2. You fucking idiot, anyone watching your videos knew you were gay anyways.
Twitter is so sanitized.

All these trolls fall under "online influencers" and are sadly protected by this.

In my experience, you can say literally anything you want on twitter
RE: Trolling Social Media - ohxerxe - Jun 13, 2019
Social media is a shit show. You can be banned just for having differing opinions.
As for the gay guy, I remember way back in the day when he was I guess more relevant on youtube. And yes it was always obvious he is gay but I think its so big right now because of his influencer status.
Coordinated trolling missions are always fun too.

Then how come I never read anyone flaming? If someone else flamed I'd at least LIKE the response. All you see is happy replies. Twitter doesn't even have a DISLIKE option. It's all fun and smiles. I like Twitter the platform overall but I wish it wasn't so biased. It just feels like it's a leftist political agenda site. A lot of Moments related to shit I don't politically agree with. Twitter does a bad job of knowing what I'm interested in.

That seems a bit immature.

Yup. Lost all faith once I got into the PR manipulation industry.
Social Media is fucking dangerous. And we are being manipulated.

Everyone has to act positive on social media, for example in the e-sports scene if you are a professional player for Cloud9, NRG, G2, etc.. and you make one wrong comment/reply they will drop you faster than a fat kid chasing an ice cream truck.

Does not true, you can get banned for deadnaming or misgendering.

I am about ready to just delete my personal account because I absolutely hate the moments section. The worst part is that it knowingly goes against my advertising topics. I downloaded my twitter data to see if it has anything relevant. Cars, tech, technology, NBA, and several travel related topics should not mean the freaking top thing featured is "These are the top 20 Democrats who have qualified for the debate stage" and "Brazil's Supreme Court criminalizes homophobia and transphobia".
Great. I just wanted to see if there is any good trash talk on game 6 or waste some time looking at Koenigsegg's Jesko red cherry edition to see if would cost three of five times what I would be willing to pay for one.

Also posting anything crypto related as a response to Elon Musk. Although that's to prevent scams.

Even if someone is totally in the wrong, you cant blatantly call him retarded you have to sugar-coat it.

It's funny you post this, I actually had to force myself to leave Twitter today. I can't stand all the celebrities and made up celebrities trying to push their own political views down our throats 24/7. Finally had enough when some verified page tried to ignite a race war over Tim Allen getting busted for cocaine 40 years ago and not being in prison in life "when his homies are looking at life for a little crack".

I've been learning how to circumvent telling someone an ugly word because of some reported posts that locked my account.

It's not about who cares or doesn't care. He got your attention and just gained more popularity from you viewing his content and sharing it with others. It starts from follower #1 to follower #8,000,000.
I don't use twitter except for when I need support from companies that only use twitter for help. Instagram is only for seeing family and nature pictures. YouTube I only use for music, golf, and hockey.

Why not stifle their voices by not viewing their content or using social platforms except for personal and business use only? Sure I may be Out Of The Loop more, but I certainly feel more at ease not knowing things like who Cardi B was till I read threads about her here. Maybe you won't silence them on social media, but you'll certainly silence them in your own world.
This is why I like Reddit. You are able to subscribe to the content you would like to see. You don't see stupid posts shared by friends about subjects you don't shouldn't care about. Some of my favorite subreddits are AncientCoins, AskHistorians, CoinRings, and Woodworking. Specific content without interference of toxic content.
