Twitter actually is Macbeth’s “tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Twitter is Seinfeld’s “show about nothing.” It turned out to be almost embarrassingly easy to take a stand against Twitter. Spending a few hours on Twitter doesn’t make anyone any better informed than spending a few minutes scanning Cosmo and National Enquirer headlines in the supermarket checkout aisle. They scan the headlines, if that, and then get on with the serious business of spewing more malice-flavored ignorance. People - and Dorsey assures us that some of them might still be real - don’t read jack on Twitter. But when you share a PJ Media link on Twitter… nothing happens. When you share a PJ Media link on Facebook (those times they allow it!), your connections click on that link and read our stuff. They go there for (at best) small talk, and at worst, for shouting down their political opponents. People don’t go to Twitter to actually find, read, and share the news. So when we annoy the Facebook Gods, it seriously hurts our bottom line.īut PJ Media has been at war with Twitter now for nearly a month, and guess what: Our traffic hasn’t been affected one whit. People, for whatever reason, actually use Facebook to find news, read news, and share news. When Facebook decides to hurt PJ Media, they can really hurt PJ Media. Finally, you’ve had enough, and you tell the bully you’ll meet him outside.īut once you see him clearly for the first time, illuminated under a bright streetlamp, you can tell that the man who looked so big and tough under cover of darkness is actually quite old and much frailer than you’d thought. You try to ignore him, but the taunting persists. You’re enjoying a nice conversation in a dark bar when a big, tough-looking guy starts getting in your face, telling you to shut your mouth. When PJ Media tweeted it out shortly thereafter, our official account was also locked.”Īnd so things still stand, two weeks later.īut to give you an idea of what our company-wide suspension has meant to us in real terms, I want you to imagine a particular scenario. “When Matt tweeted out his article,” Paula wrote a week after Matt’s lock-out, “his Twitter account was promptly locked. I also couldn’t be more proud of our managing editor, Paula Bolyard, for taking Matt’s side and provoking an even bigger fight with Dorsey and his digital flash-mob goons. I couldn’t be more proud of Matt for standing his ground. Matt refused to remove the “offending” tweet and the logjam between him and Twitter remains unchanged, three weeks later. Three weeks ago, my PJ Media friend and colleague Matt Margolis was suspended from Twitter for linking to his own VIP column stating that assistant secretary for Health and pretend four-star admiral Rachel Levine is male. To explain what I mean, you’ll need a little background. When I say “nobody cares what happens on Twitter” I’m talking about the actual people - seriously, I’m assured some of them are probably real - who use Twitter. I don’t even mean people like myself, who fell in love with Twitter in its early days, but who finally quit when the oppressive Woke nonsense got to be too much. When I say “nobody,” I don’t mean people like you, gentle reader, who were probably too smart to ever get involved on the pond-scum platform.
