Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube have fucked up public discourse. They reward rage-bait content, they’re addictive by design, encourage tribalism, and they use an opaque algorithm to promote/demote posts. They silently censor ideas and content. Meta censors news in Canada.

Zuckerberg and Musk appear to have political aims they are using their platforms to promote.

Why would I want that? I get the slippery slope argument, but they are a slippery slope already.

No - just like I don’t want to ban people having a conversation in a pub about a topic I don’t like even if they just tell lies to each other.

If it was up to the EU we’d still believe there was no chance in the world the Corona Covid virus could have ever come from a Chinese lab and even suggesting it should have you banned from social media. Free float of ideas and let the best argument win.
