#1 The media will be absolutely furious. The bluecheck was not just a verified account, it was nothing less than the mark of modern aristocracy. If you had a bluecheck, that meant something.

Now, any asshole with $5 can get one? Do you know how humiliating and demeaning that is? It's deliberate cruelty inflicted on journalists.

#8 Blue Checkmark Mafia keeps promising to quit Twitter over this. Some even post that Twitter should pay them for their digital presence. I pity the person who would join Twitter simply to follow one of these woke simps.
