People will never accept that part of the problem is themselves.

Hell, even I still use Twitter sometimes. I admit I am part of the problem. Other people won't at least try to be honest about it.

Then they complain. That just shows that they're not actually upset at the existence of sites like Twitter, they're just upset they're not the ones running them.

The vast majority of human beings in this country are so toxic.
