Don Lemon is the most important person Don Lemon knows. So when he announced that he was leaving Twitter, he did it with a video statement and a letter. Lemon joins The Guardian, Bette Midler and a few other tantrum throwers in rage-quitting. It would seem that allowing other viewpoints is simply not tolerated when you are morally right about everything. One would think that in an open marketplace of viewpoints, some vile, some intelligent, left-side media and personalities could make their case. Apparently not.

There’s also this weird bit about arbitration being settled in a liberal jurisdiction. Let’s check in with Twitchy’s resident legal expert.

Good lord, you could have just written a tweet. We didn’t need a fancy letterhead and watermarked letter

And all because you think that if you sue Twitter you want to do it in a liberal jurisdiction? https://t.co/dCHTfSQXSn

It would seem that Lemon just wants to take his ball and go home.

These people were completely fine when you would get banned for saying men and women are different and now they’re taking their ball and going home.

Bye bitch. https://t.co/INhgVQJ7Cx

Hey, we said that first!

Just go already. Spare us the vagina monologue theatrics, you lying mutant. Bye, Felicia 👋🏾

It would also seem that others would also like Lemon to take his ball and go home too – but maybe with less drama.

A few people doubt Lemon’s sincerity.

“I swear guys… I’m gonna do it… I’m leaving… I’m serious this time… not coming back… I promise… this is the last you’ll see of me… okay… I’m going now… walking away… here I go… see you all later…. don’t try to stop me… I’m out of here… taking the first step……

Does anyone else detect a pattern of skepticism emerging here?

Far more were, how shall we put it, not too moved.

Here’s why nobody cares…

It’s not all goodbyes, though.

In one week,

I discovered @JustineBateman,@JRubinBlogger announced she’s quitting X,
The @guardian announced it’s quitting,@instapundit is back (!),
And now Lemon is quitting.
What a week. https://t.co/uNlc03JcvT

While the exit of some of the worst “news” sources and toxic left-wing figures, it has been fun to engage with them over the years. Yet, this is a net win for free speech and conservatism, which was typically suppressed before.
