Dump Twitter
“Dump Twitter” is a growing online movement encouraging users to abandon the social media platform in favor of alternatives over concerns about censorship and misinformation. The movement’s proponents argue that Twitter has become an echo chamber, suppressing diverse viewpoints and promoting only those that conform to the company’s perceived biases.
Users cite the company’s recent decision to label certain tweets as “misleading” and its suspension of accounts spreading COVID-19 information as examples of excessive moderation. Concerns have also been raised about the role of bots and automated accounts in amplifying misinformation and contributing to a toxic online environment.
