In danger of being ratio& #39;d in a very minor way here, which gave me pause for thought - so here& #39;s my thought.

I& #39;m not arguing with the responses that anger is justified, or righteous, or maybe needed.

But I wonder what anger on *twitter* has ever been good for. https://twitter.com/imrankhan/status/1264576059594465281">https://twitter.com/imrankhan...
Seriously. What have angry tweets ever achieved?

Does they even make us feel better?

Like, the thing I& #39;ve found so tragic about lockdown is the loss of moments.

They& #39;re all life is made of, and it feels like they& #39;re being stolen. One after another, after another, after another
And tell me I& #39;m being naive, but shouldn& #39;t we do social media because it& #39;s entertaining? Or at least useful?

I& #39;m just finding it unbearably sad about Cummings Twitter (and yes I recognise the irony here) that instead of either of those, all it does is create a circle of fury.
The fury doesn& #39;t bloody do anything.

If the anger was helping us create change, or donate time or money, or fix things... that& #39;d be something.
But today it just goes round & round & round.

And it robs us of yet more of those moments that could instead be sun-drenched, or filled with friends, or spent in stories.

Anyway. That& #39;s why I feel like the twitter reaction& #39;s worse than the thing itself.
