Social media is home ground for GritCult: the account was built on Twitter, and 2,701 of his posts deal with the platforms, the algorithm and the feed. He holds two views at once, that posting online is the best opportunity a young man has and that the feed is a machine built to consume him, and most of what he writes on the subject tries to reconcile them.
Views
The early posts are theory. In 2018, his busiest year on the subject with 578 posts, he described modern life as a Truman show in which you are both the watcher and the watched, putting yourself into public entertainment engines and seeing yourself mirrored back with metrics, which he called the horror of modernity [1]. By 2020 the tone had hardened into indictment. Social media, he wrote, should be renamed the social anxiety industrial complex: it rewires your brain with notifications, forces you to disagree with strangers you will never meet, and runs on an engine of hate [2].
One of his most repeated lines on the subject, posted again and again through 2021, is that social media companies and drug dealers both call their customers users [3]. The algorithm is the villain of the piece. A For You page is an algorithmic tyranny on the senses and the antithesis of free will, and whole generations have had their culture centrally controlled by it [4]. He likens mindless scrolling to mindless television and treats the news feed as a source of manufactured outrage, something you cultivate your way out of rather than argue with.
None of this leads him to log off. His practical advice runs the other way: if you only lurk, start posting, because it does not matter what you post, just start [5]. Followers are the wrong scoreboard; a young account should optimise for how many people it could start businesses with and actually spend time with [6]. In his telling Twitter is a door-opener, the place to make friends, meet collaborators and get into rooms you were never invited into, with writing as the skill underneath all of it. The difference between the victim and the winner is not the app but the posture: one consumes, the other creates.
The two halves meet in a late, religious framing. In his words, the algorithm wants people anxious, distracted and consuming while their job is to be calm, focused and creating, and every day is a war between what the feed wants and what God put them here to do [7]. The bleakest version, and the most retweeted of his 2026 posts on the subject, says most men are meat, eaten alive by the timeline and its constant slop [8]. Even there the cure he offers is not abstinence but appetite: embrace the chaos and lean into it.
Recurring themes
- social media as a mirror with metrics
- users, dealers and the attention trade
- the algorithm as tyrant
- stop lurking and start posting
- create rather than consume
- the feed against God's purpose
