It's tremendous to see this type of content back. I've had Stanley's "Hi!" stuck in my brain for over a year. Good to see the chap is still operating at peak success.
"target me" - Someday I would like someone to do a thorough historical/cultural analysis beginning with the era of Usenet groups and culminating in contemporary social media, looking at how the language of "targeting" replaced the language of, you know, commenting and replying and the like.
I agree with the first sentence but not the second. Twitter IS psychologically challenging, especially to agreeable people. It’s a minority of people who can handle it, and I believe him when he says he’s gone off it and his life is better now (recently did the same myself). His mistake is seeing this as a verdict against Twitter rather than an admission of personal weakness.

I thought we lost you :( but here you are. Welcome back feallsanachd!
Can you imagine taking one of his courses?
An hour+ of predictably-trite, Teen Vogue-level TikTok rants?
That is not success.
feallsanachd is back baby!
What enabled this quality content for sure was getting off UA-cam for a year
That feeling when the new feallsanachd drops. No other channel gets me so hyped. And on top of that it's a Stanley (TM) rant? Jackpot.
It hurt his brain, but it broke our hearts.
we're so back

The title made me laugh , the content made me cry

The saddest moment is when he is attacked on Twitter. Elon obviously didn’t read his new BOOKS and OP-EDs.
This is the most self-centered Twitter-related rant I've seen. And he's definitely constantly checking Twitter using an anon account.

Twitter is bad.
is he still on Twitter?
Wesley Yang is now a Trumper?
fascism is for agreeable people like stanley
He's not all that bad--he's allegedly come out in defense of Sarah Braasch.
Wow, he’s not a completely deranged and / or malevolent lunatic. Congratulations.
you hate him too? love.
Jason Stanley is right about Twitter, change my mind
It’s not that Twitter is bad, it’s that agreeable people can’t handle it.
Signed,
agreeable person
He is definitely right about Twitter
He's basically right
