I said it yesterday and got downvotes, Twitter’s CEO decided to pick sides in the political battle so they should expect what’s coming to them.

what's coming to them? Is it violence? That's how I often here the phrase "get what's coming to you" used.

Perhaps you spend too much time around violent people?

The phrase is the equivalent of “reaping what you sow”.

which again is used to refer to a violent response to a violent action.

Only by violent people. It’s about a consequence, good or bad. It’s literally about fucking harvesting crops.
