Kritarchy -- Government by judges, as ruled ancient Israel as chronicled in the Old Testament.

Kleptocracy -- Government by people who use their office or authority to steal and loot from the public: resources, money, land, etc.

Kakistocracy -- Government by the least suitable or competent; government by the worst citizens of a nation.

And I’ve seen a few members post that they get more engagement with a much smaller number of followers than on Xitter, because so many Xitter accounts are bots.

I Retweeted Tweets from DU on my Twitter page. I have 175 Followers and I've been on for 6 years. I call it Underground Twitter supporting those on the Front Lines of Fighting for our Democracy.

Now that sounds interesting. It could be a way to start moving reasonable people off Twitter to another format as well.
