If it's just a random person having fun, don't worry as much about it. This will help with 2 things:

  • Not as much disinformation
  • Less political rage bait

Fake tweets suck. I did not like looking back having wasted time and thoughts responding to something later found to not exist. I personally will also block anyone reposting fake tweets as real. Don't waste our time. thanks

If its in shitposts or something like that its fine imo, but yeah if they sell it as news then fuck them.

And timestamps IN the picture! They go a long way when verifying a post actually happened.

Wouldn't the archived link take care of that?

We want to be making fun of and correcting disinformation on Twitter, not spreading misinformation about Twitter.
