People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement (see rule 6)

I doubt people would admit to killing Bob the next day. But people would talk about the bullshit Bob made everyone put up with, and the motives leading to his death. And maybe that would curtail people doing bullshit on the daily.

I expect that after the first few purges, most of the people missing afterwards would be the poor and vulnerable who aren’t able to defend themselves from the group who just want to kill.

That’s literally the plot of the purge. It exists to get rid of poor people.
