And I think that many of these questions are quite complicated, not at all a straightforward case of *more plural, diverse, and democratic than ever right now.* (Says one blue check mark to another.) — PolitiTweet.org

It is, happily, more racially diverse than it has ever been. Is it more diverse in terms of educational attainment? Class? Is it clear that the Big Tech mediated platform era is more democratic than the immediately preceding blog era? Not all good things go together. — PolitiTweet.org

@politicalmath @tkdylan @politicalelle Also, what do you mean "fought to let the story out"? Fought Twitter to post it? Like, multiple outlets did try to report on it, you realize that, right? — PolitiTweet.org

@tkdylan @politicalmath @politicalelle I don't believe it's true that either of them covered for lies and you are lecturing others for disinformation even as you make those charges without citing any evidence, just your vague impressions of what people "like them" are like — PolitiTweet.org

@politicalmath @tkdylan @politicalelle Well, but we're the panelists among those who played a small part? I have no idea! But lots of people cheered on the censoring of the story openly. So maybe confront them instead of random center leftists! — PolitiTweet.org

@JDHaltigan @politicalelle It was after that panel. I wasn't eavesdropping so I can't tell you what they spoke about just that Stelter walked over right after and talked to him awhile. — PolitiTweet.org

@JDHaltigan @politicalelle a way that was very hard to answer straightforwardly because so many contested statements were baked into the question. It's like when I talk at a college and some asks me, *Given that our nation is a white supremacist patriarchy that colonizes brown bodies, how do you explain... — PolitiTweet.org

@JDHaltigan @politicalelle In the moment, the person next to me said *this sounds like a contrived stunt to get on Fox News* and I defended the questioner as a conservative student earnestly upset.

@tkdylan @politicalelle I agree with you that the Biden laptop story was correct and as I said at the time, before we knew that, it was shameful for Twitter to censor it. I don't understand who at the conference was responsible for that. If someone there lied, who? — PolitiTweet.org

@JDHaltigan @politicalelle Many people reflected on many things. The particular reflectiveness you are wanting is evidenced explicitly in the panel with Ben Smith, David Axelrod, Jonah Goldberg, and maybe others, I forget — PolitiTweet.org
