Delusional is believing that CNN has that many viewers (which has been dropped to 60mil) when networks like MSNBC and Fox destroy them in the ratings but aren't on the list. Delusional is not admitting that at least 5% (I think it's higher) of all followers are bots according to Twitter themselves. If followers isn't related to the number of people who pay attention to what your posting then the whole thing is the pathetic joke that I've always believed and the number of followers is irrelevant.

Updated.

Personally, I go back and forth on Twitter. I've created and deleted accounts several times. It's by far the best place to find unfiltered information on the internet. But it's only as good or bad as the people you follow, so you have to do some work to curate your feed.

The main downside is that it's super addictive. It's like TikTok for smart people. I don't have the app on my phone, only my computer, but I still use it too much which means I'll probably be deleting my account again soon.
