Twitter is an anger-filled minefield and if it wasn't so addictive and needed in the job market I'd drop it.
It's just murder on your mental health.

If it makes you feel better, while I have been lucky enough to delete my Twitter account, my current job is full of co-workers and customers that are arguably even worse than Twitter. At least you can block/ignore strangers on Twitter, and the opinions seem to skew left politically while my store is mostly old people STILL blaming all our problems on “new” cartoons from 30-40 years ago, somehow—it’s probably more like Gab, 4Chan or TruthSocial here.
Unfortunately, I think it may be up to a majority of the American population to stop being so toxic on and off Twitter if we want to save our collective sanity. It almost seems like these days that people will make you feel guilty for being able to be happy in a “broken world” nowadays—like we’re not allowed to enjoy ANYTHING until everything is perfect and everything costs only a nickel like in the early 1900’s, but at the same time, people will still find SOMETHING to complain about even in the best of times.
Seriously, at times it almost feels like isolation is better for my mental health personally than trying to make friends with people whose only topics of conversation involve death and taxes.

Exactly.
I can't even comment, but I really do understand that too.
