As Twitchy reported earlier, "conservative" New York Times columnist David French posted a thread explaining why he's leaving Twitter for Threads. We don't follow Threads, so we're not sure if you're not allowed to call out bad takes over there. French has become nothing more than a scold, aiming all his fire at his fellow conservatives for not being Christian enough. We're all pretty sure he'll be back when he realizes that Threads is like shouting into the void.
Also "mentally preparing" to leave Twitter is CNN's Adam Kinzinger.

Kinzinger's going to Threads as well. That must be an online safe space.
Elon Musk explained why Kinzinger's leaving Twitter:
He doesn’t like his lies being questioned

The only people who don’t like X are the ones who cannot compete in the battlefield of ideas.

And yet, they never seem to make good on their promises to leave! Come to think of it, they never make good on any of their promises. 😎😎🤡😎

How long will it take him to "mentally prepare" to leave?
This is kinda savage. I dig it.

Are we supposed to throw a going away party or something?

In other words don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
Plenty of non-bot, new folks adding some meaningful ideas showing up every day.
First @DavidAFrench and now little @AdamKinzinger - what a day for @X !

Is he gone yet? Will he see this post? We bet he will.
