Really wish there were a "no Trumper" filter for twitter.

Because it can be a useful place for information about a lot of things, including coronavirus. Marc Lipsitch, for example, has been great on the topic.

But if you do a search, Trumper posts will show up with conspiracy theories about how it's all a liberal scheme to destroy family Christian values.

An evil repuke hedge fund guy Paul Singer is in the midst of a hostile takeover of twitter because Jack Dorsey banned political ads and Singer is helping MF45 in his re-election. I rarely look at Facebook and started looking at Twitter. Now I will not look at twitter when Singer takes over.
