Follow-for-follow under scrutiny

Saturday, 18 February 2023, Breckenridge, CO. It was a terrible awakening for local Medium writer Alfred Parker after discovering his followers’ murderous intent.

Parker, who joined Medium recently, built a following through the follow-for-follow system. In the early morning of Saturday, Parker recognised his followers were literally following him. He also discovered they were ravenous cannibals.

The cannibalistic followers chased the writer through Colorado before finally apprehending Parker in an old gold mine. The writer was released once the cannibals realised he was a starving fiction writer. “He would have been barely enough for a bone broth.”

Medium CEO Toby Satirebine promised to take measures to improve the safety of starving fiction writers. Parker’s five regular readers were happy to have him back.
