I challenge everyone that see this to not watch cable news and not get most news from social media for a week starting today. Instead watch PBS, NPR and pull from independent media. Next week report back with if you feel different. #PBSchallange — PolitiTweet.org

24/7 news is grotesquely unethical. Rarely is there ever such an event that is so massive and important that it needs to be covered around the clock. If you’re doing news 24/7 you’re going to start shifting to covering Bull Shit or making stuff up to fill in the gaps. — PolitiTweet.org

This goes for Fox News but this also goes for all profit driven media. The people who have power over them are the viewers. Stop watching them and they will change. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s a big reason why politicians say insane things now NOT because they believe what they say but because it’s basically a rhetoric arms race to get on the news more. They are getting huge donations from it and social media/cable news are getting filthy rich from it. — PolitiTweet.org

We need to fund public media more. Our top media sources should not be finically motivated to spin, sensationalize and divide. — PolitiTweet.org

Stop watching cable news and start watching PBS. You’d be amazed how much your perspective changes. The level of sensationalism on cable news and social media is insane. Just for one week and try to not get your news from cable news or social media and you’d be shocked. — PolitiTweet.org

You can criticize and harass me as much as you want. I will still love you and defeat you ;) — PolitiTweet.org

I criticize my country country not because I hate it but because I love it. Nothing has ever gotten stronger without being challenged to do better. The union has never become more perfect without criticism and action. I refuse to believe the best is behind us. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

I wish more Americans realized we can disagree with each other without hating each other. Respectful discourse and disagreement over how to create a more perfect union is a necessary and good thing that makes us stronger. Hating each other doesn’t it only helps our enemies. — PolitiTweet.org

I wish I could have done more over the past couple years but I have had to address my PTSD and focus on college. Rest assured, we’re coming back stronger than ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Russian and Chinese state media use gun violence in the United States to show why democracy doesn’t work. Not only is failing to address this issue killing our future, it’s being weaponized against us. — PolitiTweet.org

@FireRokita @SenSchumer I agree — PolitiTweet.org

I’m worried about the next parkland but I’m even more worried about tonight because every night in America the equivalent of several Parklands happen in the form of individual shootings that rarely make it on the news. — PolitiTweet.org

Help me help you. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

We are sooooo close to changing gun laws at the federal level. We’ve waited a decade for this moments- we can’t wait another decade. @SenSchumer tell us what we need to do to make this happen we need you to bring these bills to a vote and we need them to pass. — PolitiTweet.org

The job of an advocacy org is not to elect one party and do nothing after. The job is to elect whoever we can to change the issue and then make them act. If you just want to elect Dems and do nothing after go work for the DNC. — PolitiTweet.org

The people who would be best at it don’t want to run for office but we might have to end gun violence and make the American dream a reality for all. — PolitiTweet.org

You can send as many threats as you want. Short of Literally killing me you will never stop me. Even if you do, you’ll never kill the movement. — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

Thank you to the concerned people in the thread. But No, I’m NOT going to kill myself. You’re going to have to kill me to stop me. I’m not going to do that for you. If that does happen and I do get killed. Politicize the fuck out of my death and pass comprehensive gun reform. — PolitiTweet.org

All we want are some common sense rules to stop what happened to Parkland and happens every day America from happening again. Our future is killed every single day in our country and the fact politicians do nothing about it is a canary in the coal mine for our future — PolitiTweet.org

Sometimes the numbness I know I and so many other survivors have developed as a survival strategy fades and the pain that washes in is so great it’s like a tidal wave. — PolitiTweet.org

Watching the parents of victims of gun violence get older with time as literally nothing has changed at the federal level to stop what happened to their child is absolutely soul crushing. — PolitiTweet.org

And if you can’t donate vote or help somebody run for office or run for office yourself we need people to replace these assholes — PolitiTweet.org

David Hogg ☮️ @davidhogg111

The best way you can help besides voting is donating or signing up at https://t.co/SrCltJsrBH we need as many people as possible to put as much pressure as possible on these politicians — PolitiTweet.org
