I think a lot of anger is misplaced from people who are calling for a lot of censorship. While people complain about it, it's not necessarily the problem that FB/Twitter/YouTube allow extreme views on their platform. It's that they amplify those extreme views. I don' think they set out trying to do it, but their algorithms do seem to prefer things that get a reaction out of people (positive or negative). If someone posts something hateful, a lot of people may click on it or respond, but that doesn't mean it's good. Social media companies put a lot of faith being put into machine learning on human behavior, but people don't behave perfectly rationally. Especially when they're scrolling through Twitter to kill time on the can. People who call for censorship have gone too far, but if you think Facebook/Twitter/whatever are doing an A+ GreatJob when it comes to social responsibility I strongly disagree.
