Nope. I love freedom. I’m frightened by disinformation (like the Big Lie about the 2020 election) that undermines our democracy. I explain my views further in this @PostOpinions column on why Elon Musk is the last person who should control Twitter: https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

@MaxBoot So, basically, you’re frightened by freedom.

Isn't that what people said about Trump? That he couldn't possibly make Washington worse? But he did. At the very least Musk would prevent the kind of reforms that Twitter needs. As I argue in @PostOpinions: https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

I think it's some of both but mainly the algorithm. As @JonHaidt points out, social media was more benign in pre-algorithmic days. Of course it also had a lot fewer users then. — PolitiTweet.org

The kind of reform social media badly needs is unlikely to occur at Twitter if Musk, who calls himself a “free speech absolutist,” succeeds in buying the company. He is the world’s richest troll, engaging in online bullying and comparing Trudeau to Hitler. https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

I am concerned about what Elon Musk’s takeover bid means not just for Twitter but for our democracy. Anyone who thinks the problem with social media is too much content moderation, rather than too little, should not own one of the most powerful platforms. https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you for making my point, trolls. There is way too much nonsense online—too much name-calling, too much dishonesty, too many conspiracy theories. And there is a disturbing tendency for online flash mobs to create an echo chamber of crackpot opinions. https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

The world’s richest troll should not own one of the world’s most influential social media platforms. We need more content moderation, not less, to curb the excesses of social media. https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

I woke up Thursday to the news that Elon Musk, the world’s richest troll, wants to buy Twitter. So I went on Twitter and wrote that “we need more content moderation, not less.” The hyperbolic reaction shows the excesses of social media flash mobs. https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

I suggested that we need more content moderation, not less. The Trumpist reaction was hyperbolic. @RepMTG tweeted: “Kill freedom of speech to save democracy? Say you’re a communist.” Should I be worried that she might send the gazpacho police after me? https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org

If content moderation is communism or fascism, that would mean that the US was under fascist rule when I was growing up in the 1980s. Back then most people got news from a newspaper or 3 TV networks. Politics was saner and less polarized in those days. https://t.co/NyDMBSu5TX — PolitiTweet.org
