It’s… interesting watching Amazon censor certain books and not others. System not yet in equilibrium. https://t.co/P5RagDecR2 — PolitiTweet.org
Keith Rabois @rabois
@pmarca Fairly well established standards for books, not sure why we can’t easily adopt those.

Gmail filters spam, but not political content. Yet. https://t.co/Pitnr7Yn2V — PolitiTweet.org

A common Internet content policy is: X-ism is banned, but false accusations of X-ism are not banned. What does that tell us? — PolitiTweet.org

Totally disagree. The issues of spam and political censorship are orthogonal, and everyone knows it. https://t.co/bO60lzYkms — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that employees of social media platforms are loud and proud about their political leanings is a red herring.

Content and participants (users) are the MOST VALUABLE THING on social platforms! Platforms don't like to threaten them unless they have to!

The fact that some supposed authority "discredited" the theory is much less relevant than the behavior the idea was prompting.
