This just in: if you ignored my previous warnings about Hola, a remote execution bug was found. If you still have Hola installed, any website you visit can install arbitrary programs on your PC to steal data or spy on you. (technical details)

So I'm on Twitter and I find it to be a great way to get news alerts and updates on world events/breaking stories in one place, if you follow the right accounts there.

I'll share those who I follow and find the most interesting.

No pro-Russia shilling or big/mainstream news agencies, please

While we are on the subject, what do you think of Twitter?

As it is a form of social media I stay away from it, but I have seen a decent amount of activity raised in this community over content on the site, so its useful in the sense that subhumans will provide evidence to damn themselves on it.

It's easy to fall into the snarky, bitchy, nonconstructive and idiotic methodology of Twitter shenanagains, and like some ideological disease you may find yourself infected with very stupid ideas, like thinking that hashtag wank is a valid way to change the world. See shit like GG or parts of the neoreaction movement who spend 90% of their time passive-aggressively arguing with their cagey opposition and smugly referencing their preferred movement in egotistic posts.

You're right with saying that some of these accounts are good for quick information and up to date news, but somehow I feel that the twitter format devaules it somewhat. Like look at this shit. It's like the little text crawl at the bottom of a cable TV station. No context, no larger view. The greater issues become buried under piles of semantics and casualty numbers.
