Despite the circumstances, I don’t think it sets a good precedent in the future. Many reasons for this, not least of which is when you have a criminal continuing to give evidence publicly you let them keep going...
- mattnewton 6y agoI think these platforms just don’t want any possibility that they are responsible for inciting a riot in the future. Purely an ass-covering move, just as it was to continue to platform him when he had power over the DoJ. If you want any other behavior you’d have to clarify the immunities and/or expectations around platforming government officials explicitly in law, and I am afraid what this congress would come up with.
- vkou 6y agoIt's not just ass-covering. Many of the people who work on those platforms don't want to be complicit in a coup.
