World leaders in developed countries should not be depending on Twitter or private media companies at all.
There is no good reason why the President of the United States cannot publish his (in the case of Trump, ill-formed) thoughts directly to whitehouse.gov.
We should demand and expect that governments publish directly to the web in an immutable way that is archived to satisfy our duty to history.
Twitter made things worse by hiding Trump’s previous tweets. Every voter should be required to read every damn one of them.

- bellyfullofbac 6y agoTwitter really was horrible, it enabled Trump's keyboard warrior persona. He was too chickenshit (or lazy) to actually say things with a camera and press in front of him, but with Twitter he can just shit post with no consequence.
- sitkack 6y agoMaybe the first thing twitter should do is follow its own rules and apply them everywhere. Trump should have been banned years ago. Twitter and Trump danced this together and now Twitter wants to be the good guy?
- luxuryballs 6y ago“(in the case of Trump, ill-formed)” well at least you’re not trying to hide your lack of intelligence and critical thinking skills
