If it's less toxic wouldn't it more valuable?


Depends on if it was actually toxic, or just full of people who want it to be toxic so they have something to fight against. I recently read a book by Alan Watts, and he said that one thing that liberal and conservative morality police have in common is that they don't actually want things to improve things, it's just the justification they use to try and control people. If either group were to "win", they'd just find some other cause to be upset about.


What's the name of the book? It sounds like an interesting read.


Investors typically want users and growth. It doesn't look good to be declining, no matter how you spin it. And toxicity is in the eye of the beholder, generally.


All the woke mob knows is anger and destruction. Leave them together alone and they'll turn on each other. This is a documented phenomena at this point.
