Don’t leave Twitter, Theo! I follow your substack yet Twitter gives you visibility for many, many people who haven’t had an opportunity to find you. I found you there after C19 madness when you were discussing The Truman Show. I liked the thesis but was unsure about the extent so I tested it myself and began viewing all the news I took in through that lens and found it a solid thought. Now TwitterFiles have proven your thesis to even the most jaded view of it. I’ll still be here on your substack but I’ll continue to push for your return to Twitter.

Sorry to hear that the Twitter connection will be severed. All of us have our lines in the sand, so I do respect where you are coming from.

Still...Twitter does have its uses. The problem I see is that we are all working within the framework of the Truman show, whether we like it or not. The downside to shutting down the Twitter account is that it will be another avenue cut off that the public can find a way to discover the work you've put in to show concise analysis of the current malaise of the state of affairs.

Good luck on the new endeavors, and I hope that 2023 is the breakout year. I look forward to seeing more of your thoughts and perspectives.

Respectfully,

ArthurinCali

Theo, I like the direction you're looking at and will certainly be posting your articles to Twitter for additional reach-your voice was important there but principles are more so. Tweets and threads are nothing compared to real paragraphs and articles. Heading back to watch your video. Looking forward to where this goes in the new year.

The more we find out from the Twitter files, the more accounts that get banned, the more uncomfortable I am. After your ban from Twitter I deleted all my posts, responses and likes. I’m done with Twitter too.

Oh man, I was banned from Twitter a few months ago for declaring the CIA to be the enemy.

But yr account was one of the few I would occasionally check in on.

The thing to remember is it’s because you are gaining traction they come after you. I have tweeted your substack (some of your followers can’t get in?) and TLDR’d it saying gender dysphoria is a mental health issue yet me and my 1k followers don’t get timeouts

Twitter annoys me anymore. I just checked your profile and it doesn’t say you’re suspended or anything!

Dude, I really like the idea of you going vocal. Enjoyed Calmversations and look forward to what's coming. Fair play, credit where it's due.

Do what you will, but I think most paths lead to nowhere. You were on a good one. You could have deleted the one post and then told everyone you deleted it, and we'd all know why, and no one would care that you did. I think this is a mistake, but who knows. I think your '23 level-up is to write a book. Life is a gamble. I just feel you'd hit your numbers with that Twitter account and should hold on to it. Everyone rolls their eyes at the censors anyway. We know it's a bunch of brats doing the reporting.

I wondered why I hadn't seen your tweets! (I'm @TheLegit_KC - Daughter of Eve) on Twitter) I missed your tweets and will have to come here to keep up with your thoughts and opinions, which I've always enjoyed, usually agree with, and have always considered thought-provoking.

I admire your convictions, Theo! Unfortunately, Twitter is still a valuable resource in which to get your message(s) out. And remember that "they" will have won if you leave--we NEED your wisdom and insights!! So PLEASE reconsider!

You are likely correct that deleting the post could lead to further deletion. I understand the principle, but in the grand scheme, that post is nothing compared to the reach of your active account. I understand how you feel about deleting post, but this is not the same as kneeling for the petulant. It's accepting a minor loss to keep fighting.

A break from the bird could be a good thing. I love the idea of the audio posts with receipts. I will often use my long car rides as a great time for quickly absorbing large amounts of information.

Not a video/audio expert, but might suggest Spreaker for podcasts, or Locals. Magix Vegas - Video Production with layers, greenscreen, audio/video affects. OBS – free screen recording.

I got zapped from Twitter last year. I’ve been waiting for you to post here more often.
