'Never trust the never-ratioed': Thread defending the ratioed tweet is ratioed into oblivion

It wasn’t hard to see that a Twitter thread about being ratioed not being such a bad thing would result in that thread being desperately ratioed, but Atlantic contributing editor Yascha Mounk decided to give it a try anyway. His argument? Maybe being ratioed is a sign of courage and integrity, of not going along with the conventional wisdom of the Twitter mob.

He’s right about it getting ratioed. And the thing is, as much as Twitter might seem like a mob sometimes, it’s actually like the old letters to the editor page in the newspaper; except now, journalists who put out hot takes that aren’t so hot get feedback from everyone. People can actually respond in real-time to the actual author, and sometimes their posts are just crap.

Exactly.
