I also think that we were talking past one another (as often happens on Twitter). As to my side, I was not appreciating your anger about racism and thus questioning the legitimacy of your premise for leaving Twitter. Guilty as charged. If this was enough for you to quit Twitter, that’s your call. Mea culpa, in other words.

Thanks Alec, I appreciate that. Seriously, though: check out video of what Adams said to see why this was such a big deal that he lost all the newspapers, his syndicator, and his book deal. And why it's so obvious, unambiguous racism. This isn't leftist overreacting. This is something that anyone Left or Right or Center with a basic understanding of racism can see. Thus, the fact that Elon Musk can't see it is just so galling to me that not only am I personally leaving Twitter and advocating others do so also, it's cause me to totally reevaluate and change our social media strategy for this publishing company. I was previously going to be encouraging you and the other authors to spend some time growing your Twitter following and networking there. Now? No more - there are other social networks that will be much more effective for our purposes.
