And here we are at the crux of the issue, which has always been the crux of the issue of free speech. https://t.co/oOcddPvPim — PolitiTweet.org

Why is this link not being censored now? Hypocrisy? Because the facts changed? https://t.co/mZ49lG6hJK

This is what you think of when you hear "debate." This is not what is happening on social networks today. https://t.co/h8a1FZX7Uw
Marc Andreessen @pmarca
This is true, but of course it doesn't map to any real world aspect of human personality or culture, so. https://t.co/PCh0ZpLOML — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, the execs are (whatever demographic) and the employees are (whatever politics) but they don't care about it. They don't.

This is not true. Elon understands Internet culture perhaps better than anyone I know. https://t.co/TScq3pTHT8 — PolitiTweet.org
Yishan @yishan
Elon is one of those, because he doesn't understand what has happened to internet culture since 2004. Or as I call it, just culture.
