TL;DR Summary

The Los Angeles county district attorney’s office has left Twitter due to a barrage of "vicious" homophobic attacks that were not removed by the social media platform even after they were reported. The attacks on LGBTQ+ users have increased substantially since Elon Musk took over the company last fall, according to multiple advocacy groups. The office will remain active on other mainstream social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok but said it "will not be complicit and utilize a platform that promotes such hateful rhetoric."
