@WillOremus I was super confused too, my understanding via Sanctions Twitter is the EO (1) enables blocking transactions w US-based parts of TC/BD (2) gives Commerce wide digression on what that means (3) is sloppily written, creating ambiguity https://t.co/Lnxgb3dRV8 https://t.co/yuiVMUzfs4 — PolitiTweet.org

Critics of Trump’s Iran policies have argued for years that his escalations targeted regular Iranian families, effectively punishing them for their nationality. Parallels now with his approach to China. — PolitiTweet.org

Am I reading correctly that this bars all transactions with Tencent? Can he ... even do that? Tencent is the world's 7th largest company. Its market capitalization is larger than most European economies. — PolitiTweet.org

Beirut conspiracists just got an awfully big boost! https://t.co/rr8hZofuc2 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump calls Beirut explosions "a terrible attack." In White House briefing, he pledges U.S. support for Lebanon.

My "What's happening" feed — a prominently-displayed sidebar of trending topics — has been dominated all day by Beirut conspiracies. First that it was a nuke, now that it was an American bomb. Clicking yields 1000s of conspiracy tweets. Twitter has 145 million daily active users. — PolitiTweet.org

I suspect everyone kinda knows a lot of the bullying has no higher purpose, but no one wants to admit that because most participate at some point, so why incriminate yourself and give up the thrill and validation that comes with harming someone & pretending it was all very noble — PolitiTweet.org

Good example of social media data voids, in which platforms rapidly amplify misinformation: a search for "elon musk lithium" leads to hundreds of viral conspiracy tweets (boosted by Musk himself). The fact check shows up 20+ pages deep into the results. — PolitiTweet.org

@evelyndouek @WillOremus Yes and that's not even necessarily the platforms’ intent, given the hiring is often done by fellow post-academics. Still, I’ve run into enough NDAs, “sorry I can’t discuss this,” and “your story is accurate but don’t attach my name" to confirm a chilling effect. — PolitiTweet.org

@evelyndouek @WillOremus Oh absolutely. And I don’t blame them. Looking at a future of low pay, long hours, and weak job security vs high-paying job security is not a hard choice if you also think you’ll get a chance to improve things from within. On an individual level, I completely get it. — PolitiTweet.org

@WillOremus I've made it a habit of asking independent scholars & researchers whether they are currently in talks for a job with any of the platforms they're researching and the answer is "yes" about 60% of the time. Maybe 80% for under-40s, who usually understand platforms best. — PolitiTweet.org
