Which Russian oligarch has more influence over the design of policy in Russia than the Kochs have here? Ask yourself that, and then ask yourself if oligarchy is something you only think of as existing far away. — PolitiTweet.org

When you become an oligarchy, you create a loop whereby plutes cause social problems to make money and then faux-solve the problems they caused to douse anger and keep that money: rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter, like every institution, is a contested place. There are powerful people there who don't care enough about making it safe for everyone and for democracy. But there are others inside who do. Imagine how sidelined they are, how silenced, when Elon Musk joins the board. — PolitiTweet.org

This is why it's not enough to demand billionaires "pay their fair share" or chip in 2 cents or even 8 or 10 cents. The very existence of fortunes of this size chokes democracy. The fortunes must be cut down if others are to breathe. — PolitiTweet.org
