Trent Reznor Quits Twitter Due To 'Idiots'June 12, 2009
Trent Reznor has quit Twitter and plans to give up other social networking sites claiming they're doing him more harm than good.
In a gargantuan post on the NIN forum, Reznor goes into great detail as he explains that certain “idiots” have put him off for good. Most of his bile is aimed towards blogger Fred Garrett and particularly the website Metal Sludge who he despairs have joined Twitter. He says of the Metal Sludge: "It's populated mainly by unattractive plump females who publicly fantasize about having sex with guys in bands. Kind of like a role-playing game where people NOBODY will fuck make up stories about their incredible sexual encounters with people they WISH they could fuck. "It would be kind of funny in a sad and pathetic way except the fun doesn't stop there - hate and good old-fashioned outright blatant racism are also encouraged to spice things up and remind you how truly ugly these scourges are. TRULY ugly on the inside (the outside is obvious)." Elucidating his decision, Reznor continues: “I will be tuning out of the social networking sites because at the end of the day it's now doing more harm than good in the bigger picture and the experiment seems to have yielded a result. Idiots rule.” Reznor is widely perceived to be one of the most influential musicians on Twitter, clocking up almost 650,000 followers.
