Posted in Posts Wil Wheaton on quitting social media: “I don’t deserve to be treated so terribly” September 1, 2018 Leave a comment Earlier this month, Wil Wheaton decided to take part in a little protest called #DeactiDay. The plan was for a bunch of people to delete their Twitter accounts because, among other reasons, the social media platform had refused to oust hate-spewing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Now, in a new post on his website, he details his decision to take things a step further and leave the whole of social media in his wake. Favorite This!
