I totally agree this policy will have many many false positives (to be explicit what that means to me: ads that are improperly classified as political and therefore not allowed).
And you know what? I’m totally OK with that! The content is still allowed on Twitter (and whether that’s a good/bad thing is a totally separate discussion). The only thing they’re saying is that they won’t let you pay to amplify its reach. Nobody (other than the advertiser) is going to shed a tear for those misclassifications.
It just means that a few more people will have to be naturally clever / viral / whatever to get their message out. And I’m totally OK with that too. There was once a world where Twitter wouldn’t take money from _anyone_ and everyone had to be clever to be seen or heard on the platform. Not such a bad thing.
