Current Events > Star Wars Director Deletes 20,000 Tweets

(+) Yeah! (+)

20,000....geez that sounds like more than a high school girl would do.

Sounds like he decided to carpet bomb the whole thing since he can't remember what he posted 10 years ago

Oh, its a smart move no doubt.
I hope more follow and honestly twitter and other social media sites should have an option to delete everything before a certain date.

Also now I would hope jokes become more private again. Like of you like dead baby jokes fine, but perhaps just message the people you know that find them funny.

Destroy the past. Delete your Twitter account if you have to.
---

He's just deleting his emails
---

This seems like a miscalculation. Now people are going to go hunting to find what he must have said to warrant a mass delete like that, and if he thinks those tweets are gone because he removed them from twitter than he's in for a painful lesson on the internet.

tbh deleting old shit should be standard practice

Some random harmless sexist joke he made 12 years ago could get him fired tomorrow

Twitter should have a setting for accounts, enabled by default, that just purges any tweet older than a year anyway. I can't imagine they're making any money from their servers being gunked up with ancient garbage that nobody looks at anymore.

Do you blame him? As hated as he is people will be looking for anything they can use to destroy him.
---

which one lol
---

didn't he talk a bunch of shit on people who had old tweets "found out'

It'd be hilarious if he just Streisand effect'ed himself.

There are some gamefaqs posts from 18 years ago that I'd be pretty worried about if anyone dug them up and connected them to me IRL.

Okay let's be real, there are some gamefaqs posts I made last year that are pretty iffy.

Also, this probably came at the recommendation from Disney, you know know had some of their people go through all the tweets of their more public employees.

"delete your shit yo, there's some bad stuff in there"

It'll be interesting what happens the next week or so

What goes around, comes around? Either way, whenever these rich fucks get taken down a few pegs, the rest of us win.
