I’m Quitting Twitter

by | Aug 7, 2018

As Dan McAdams was saying today on the Liberty Report, Twitter has demanded that we hit their Soviet BF Skinner button to delete our terribly offensive tweets, which at least in my case have been deleted from my feed by Twitter already, in order to begin the 12 hour countdown to having our access to our pages restored.

But I don’t like it when people tell me what to do. If they go ahead and unblock me because of the complaints, I’m still going to do my best to avoid going back. I’ve been wanting to quit Twitter anyway. It’s a worse cesspool of whining about bullshit than it’s always been and I have wasted way too much time on it. Instead I’m going to work on the Libertarian Institute and its site here and start knocking out a ton of books I’ve been needing to catch up on for interviews. Yall can still find me here at the Institute and scotthorton.org.
