I didn’t know that being concerned about the impact of social media was strictly a liberal position.
- thethethethe 5y agoIm not saying that it is, that is just the perspective that I believe this article is being written from. American conservatives are concerned about censorship, American liberals are concerned about "misinformation and disinformation". This article is firmly on the diss/misinformation side of the debate
- amanaplanacanal 5y agoI feel certain you could find plenty of people who self identify as liberals and are concerned about free speech issues, just as you can find folks who self identify as conservatives who are concerned about the spread of misinformation and conspiracy theories. Dividing people into groups and setting them against each other like this isn’t helping.
- thethethethe 5y agoYeah it's a spectrum and there will be many exceptions but I still think it is useful categorize political groups by their political beliefs in a discussion
