I always roll my eyes and chuckle a little to myself when someone deletes a 'bad tweet'
. Not chuckle as in it's necessarily funny but just at the whole mess of it .
It just looks worse imo when you backtrack and delete something, this is why some people either should not post atall on twitter..... especially if they have verbal diarrhoea. Or they should not mix booze and typing together.
I understand some people might regret what they've said , but once you've said it that's it .... and it's out there
. Just think before you post.
I know they don't always have to be intoxicated or have foot IN mouth disease, this is the internet after all and people will jump on you even for the smallest of comments...... especially if things are taken out of context and so on. Or just merely for expressing your opinion which differs from others .
The thing is what is ever really deleted? . Once you've posted something on twitter , it's instantly screen shot and re shared /re tweeted anyway isn't it ???
lol . So i would say you might aswell leave it UP . But if you feel bad or you regret it then just say so.
People who have made cringy / offensive past tweets still get them brought back up today, despite them not having those same opinions/thoughts ..... or being young and immature back then. It's definitely important to learn from it.
